Did I mention that I really like to sleep in? Ha! It is 6:15 a.m. right now during summer vacation and I am awake. Once again, my pancreas and I are at odds. I am extremely nauseated and hurting quite a bit. I am at my parent's house visiting so I wil have to try to mask the pain as much as possible. For now, I am just taking Zofran for the nausea. If the pain becomes unbearable, I will have to take something stronger than just nausea medication. The prescription pain meds and I have a love-hate relationship.I do like the fact that they can lessen the pain to a level where it can be tolerated. Once, the percocet actually made the pain completely stop hurting! It was amazing! I hate how the meds make me feel otherwise. I feel very groggy and am not really "with it" when I take it, but it also makes me unable to sleep-which is particularly bad at night. On the other hand, would I rather be awake and in severe pain or awake and feeling weird? Given the options, I'll pick weird. I do worry that these meds are damaging my liver. My pancreas is already causing me problems. I do not need to add liver problems into the mix. Okay, enough writing. I am going to try holding a pillow tightly against my abdomen and lying still. I am sick of this stupid pancreas.
11:00 a.m.-I guess I will try taking one lortab and see if that helps.

Hi, I can relate to your situation. I have had chronic pancreatitis for the past several years. I think you might find the groups on yahoo regarding pancreatitis helpful. They have a wealth of information and the people are very friendly. They have made a huge difference in my life. If you want to check them out, do a search for "directory yahoo pancreatitis groups". There are several groups to choose from. I personally am a member of several of these groups. Give them a try, you'll be glad you did!
