Quick question. I have a clinic appt next Friday and I want to get some info here first cuz I feel sometimes like I tell my clinic what to do, instead of the other way around.

Anyhoo - I have been taking Creon 20s for years. Recently I went from 4 up to 5 with meals but was still a gassy mess and so I upped it to 6. I ~thought~ I read somewhere here that five was the max you were supposed to take. I don't have any pharmaceutical inserts to peek at to check that out, plus, I don't always worry about what those things say anyway....so I wonder what you take and how many? It seems like I am on a pretty high dose, but I have nothing to comapre that to.

as an aside, you might remeber that i had a quick spell of coughing up blood early in the week. It stopped as quick as it started and I have had nothing after it, so I am not too worried, though I will inform my doc. Thanks to everyone who replied to my frantic post that night though!

Glad your bleeding issue cleared up! Always good news.

As for enzymes, I take Ultrase MT20's, and I'm the same as you; 6 with meals, 4 or 5 with snacks (depending on how fatty said snack is). I've always thought 7 was the max (or at least that's the highest I've ever been on). I don't think you can O.D. on them, though. I've been taking six for years and my doctor has never told me different.

I'm really glad to see that your bleeding stopped <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> I guess i'm the odd one out on the enzyme taking here, I take pangestyme - 10's ( generic enzymes) , 1 with each meal and snack.
