how do you know when you need enzymes?

[cheerfulpuppies]

As everyone said you need enzymes, nothing new, the doctor already called them in. All I can say is that for a couple of years I stopped taking my enzymes too but that was because I was stupid, took a break from college, and had no money or insurance for (?) three to four years. When I did get my full time job with insurance I didn't let it lapse, except for a six month period. Even with insurance I couldn't afford my meds until the last year. Based on my experience the body still needs enzymes but the pain subsided because the body adapts to the pain where is seems less severe. The stool may seem more "normal" but the malnutrition and poor vitamin absorption still occur. We think because our weight is stable and we don't feel the stomach pains that we are still healthy.

It could also be that your body was functioning okay enough to break down most things but the strain of the pregnancy on your body maybe the pancrease cannot keep up anymore. It is hard to say and honestly sometimes even the doctors don't have all the answers. For example my thyroid is enlarged, no one knows why, no one seems concerened to do any test to find out why, nor do they have any idea what to do but to watch it. Doctors DON'T have all the answers. And sometimes we feel we need an answer to why when really it doesn't change anything or the course of action. Sometimes we just have to give in to the fact that we take lots of meds but after working as a nurse we realize we really aren't that alone.
