I have very little use of my pancreas now and the doc told me i have to try to get a stint into my pancreas or i will have to go to toronto canada to see another doc regarding a tansplant. I have been suffering from a deformed pancreatic duct and pancreas. It has just started shutting down. The doc tried 7 times in april to put a stint in to open up the pancreatic duct but no go. I was told i only have two options and they are not very bright. It is all doom and gloom. I have been trying to inquire about a possible transplant becasue my doc dose not even want to talk to me about it. He said he is not well versed in this problem. I do not live in a large centre where there are a lot of specialists. It was scarry but not any more. I have resigned myself to the fact that this problem will eventually take my life. The creator has blessed me though I do not have diabetice as of yet but I do need to get tested every three months. I can not eat meat pork cheese nuts tough skinned fruit or fruit with nuts in them i end up getting pancretis pretty crappy. I do eat a lot of sugar though I tried to eat lean pork and i paid big time ended up in the hospital. I am sorry I don't have an email address I will get my daughter to set up an account for me. I wish you luck
