Hi all. Ok ive been taking creon all my life and creon 10000 probably 10+ years. Im now 26 and from about age 16 I have suffered with severe cramps and stomach ache, it was that bad I would have to curl into a ball to ease the pain. I was passing nasty wind and my number 2s left a bad smell, sorry tmi! I also felt bloated. I weigh 10 and half stone and 5'5 and have never been underweight and only been in hospital 3 times since diagnosed at 6 months old. So about 7 months ago I kinda started to forget taking my enzymes and I noticed how I felt good in myself. So I decided to stop taking them altogether. All the above symptoms changed for the better. Last week I decided to give the enzymes another shot and I spent all weekend in the bathroom and passed so much wind. Im so confused as to what to do?? I havent spoke to doctors and didnt even tell them I stopped taking them as this was my own personal choice. I actually dont thing I could go back to feeling how I did when taking enzymes. It was awful. Without taking the enzymes my weights hasnt deteriorated, I am maintaining it and my stools are 1 - 2 per day and dont smell. I know this topic is disgusting...my concerns are...am I damaging my inside ie bowl liver pancrease by not taking them or is it a good thing not to take these??? The only other meds I take is zitromax and vitamins. Any advice?? Ps ive a hospital appointment the end of this month and plan on discussing all with my dr and diatician. Thanks folks and sorry about the length of this message. Also in sept I had my annual assesment and all my vitamin levels are perfect so im obviously obsorbing the vitamins just fine without the enzymes
Are any of you pancreatic sufficient?
