Cocaine use affecting the pancreas.

A question has been brought up in my circle.  It is: How does recreational cocaine use affect a not so good pancreas?  Can anyone answer this for me?

I am in total agreement, 20 years clean........YEA.  Well maybe not totally if one counts alcohol but that is in the past too.

I'm not sorry to say it, coke is krap been there and done that.  If I had to choose a drug it would be interferon, only to get rid of this HepC.  Otherwise all drugs are krap to me, recreational use?  What is that?????????   I often thought I could use recreationally, trust me I was wrong.  When in doubt, go without!!

Cocaine is made with many different things.  at one point I remember (and can remembe.r the taste, yuck) benzine being part of the process.  Look up benzine

I agree with Trinity.  Not to mention what cocaine will do for your personal relationships, your bank balance and your criminal record!

Why don't you post that question on the gastroenterology forum.  This forum deals with those that have hepc.  My humble opinion is no amount of cocaine use is good for the pancreas, liver, heart and  just about any major organ you can think of.
