Pancreatic Enzyme Deficiency - Help me understand my symptoms
My Doctor assumes that I have Pancreatic Enzyme Deficiency. I have been on a waiting list for 3 years now to see a specialist. So, I am still waiting. I am Female
/38/5'8" tall/130lbs and I have never had any children.
4 years ago, I had chronic diahrea (sp), I was starved all the time. While I was eating and after I ate. I couldn't eat enough. I ate every 10 minutes and I never gained weight.
The worst symptom that I still have is after I consume any form of protein (meat or plant) I have an attack. This happens hours later. I start to feel confused, light headed, my hands
I take Pancrease MT 10 for enzyme replacement therapy. This immediatly gets rid of the shakes (but not the attacks)within 20 minutes. I can maintain my weight and the diahrea stops. If I stop the enzymes, all the symptoms return within 2 weeks.
My question: Why do I get these attacks after I eat protein? Why do I shake and sweat
so bad? Is this harmful to my pancrease? When I have the attack while I am sleeping - I can't wake up during them; afterwards, I am worn-out, sweaty, damp and I feel tingly throughout (from the shaking).
My Doctor is at a loss and I can't find any information. I do NOT have cystic
taking digestive enzymes only wont solve ur problem,get back those vitamins and minerals back by taking high quality supplements, i think you do have some nutritional defficiency, i had the same problem like you for almost a year! i waste a lot of time going to the hospital, with little help from doctors until i decide to talk with specialist in america via phone coz i live in japan,take vitb12 shot as well,and magnesium, you will feel great,it might take time to absorb those nutritional,i use to have panic
attack,insomnia,heart palpitation,dizziness...e.t.c. it was all vitamin/mineral defficiency my friend! i was told with japanese doctor that am suffering from chronic stress! and start being given anti depressant,anti anxiety! until i decide to quit and do some search,i used gi pro health supplements and now am good,sorry for my poor english, am from africa tanzania,***@****
