  1. @broadwaybabyto I have #ChronicPancreatitis #pancreatitis. There's a non-zero chance that pancreatic cancer is what does me in. Now I have yet another reason to hate RFK Jr.'s guts.

  2. #Tirzepatide ad in the theater: one of the possible side effects listed as "inflamed pancreas." That feels like a scummy way to avoid saying #pancreatitis. It's no fun. But it's a rare side-effect at least. I'm on #dulaglutide which also has that as a rare side-effect. But I had already developed #ChronicPancreatitis at that point, so, kinda water under the bridge for me at least.

  3. Happy belated birthday to me. This time, it is not #pancreatitis, but #appendicitis. Yay. I go in for surgery at some point tomorrow to remove it. I wonder if this is related to my #ChronicPancreatitis #ChronicIllness or if it is just a bonus to start the new year. #FortWorth #healthcare.

  4. Maybe due to #semaglutide med #trulicity, which delays gastric emptying? Just a "shot" in the dark, really. The paranoid person in me thinks that the GI doc might be trying to increase billable hours knowing that I've already hit deductible for the year.

  5. ANOTHER failed #ercp, due to food in stomach? Whah? I didnt eat for 16+ hours prior to procedure! This is BS : #pancreatitis #ChronicPancreatitis #ChronicIllness. Yet another #ercp in my future. #healthcare.

  6. If I asked you to name the most common causes of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI/PEI), what would you list?

    And why?

    Food for thought on what medical literature commonly - incorrectly - states as the most common cause of EPI: bit.ly/43E9wg5
