Digestive Disorders

I am a 51 year old diabetic that has been diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis, diabetes -- type 2 and gastroparesis. I have had diarrhea for the past two years. My present weight is 80.3 lbs. (Before diarrhea 170lbs. Everything I eat, or even drinking a glass of water causes diarrhea. The physicians I have seen performed 2 colonoscopies, 1 endoscopy with a biopsy and gastri emptying. I have been prescribed Viokase, Sandostatin, Cymbalta, etc. Nothing seems to help. PLEASE TELL ME HOW DO I COPE WITH THIS ILLNESS?  Thank you!
