Guest guest Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Pancreatic Diseases I have a dear friend who is 71 years of age and very healthy until 2 weeks ago she came down with pancreatitis. She spent 2 weeks in the hospital and is now home. She is not a drinker, as the doctors had originally assumed, so they have no clue what cased the pancreatitis. Now they are just going to assume it was the gallbladder and they want to do surgery in a few weeks to remove the gallbladder. She has never had surgery before and isn't sure about having it now. Any information on this topic would be greatly appreciated as she is trying to figure out if she should just have the surgery as she does not want to have another episode (it was very painful and she spent 5 days in ICU), but they can not tell us that the gallbladder caused because they found no stones. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 Sounds like a fishing expedition to me! - I would not let them even THINK about removing my gallbladder on an assumption just because they don't know what else to do - sounds very scientific, huh? " Well, we can't just removethe pancreas, but we gotta take out something... How about the gallbladder? " The fact that the doctors assumed she was a drinker also speaks to their lack of communicating effectively, if at all with their patients (and how many serious drinkers live to 71 anyway - I mean the kind who drink enough to damage any organ?) I would focus on enzyme therapy - like getting dessicated pancrease tissue (in capsules - usually bovine) - to use as a crutch for a little while until the pancreas is in better shape then or as well as herbs to rebuild/support the pancreas - a good cleanse is always helpful - most herbal products that are helpful for diabetes are usually strengthening to the pancreas Would your friend got to a Chinese (TCM) practitioner? they do pulse, tongue and other diagnoses that are non-invasive Or an iridologist, who can look into the iris & determine the problem - probably using muscle testing as well A homeopath may also be helpful or a kinesiologist sometimes a natural health practitioner (including the holistic chiropractors) uses many of these modalities to determine which one is better According to Louise Hay " You Can Heal Your Life " all dis-ease is related to an emotion/feeling (this is held to be a true in many teachings) the pancreas: " Represents the sweetness of life " the affirmation is: " My life is sweet. " Pancreatitis is related to the probable cause of: " Rejection. Anger and frustration because life seems to have lost its sweetness " the " new thought pattern " /affirmation to counteract that: " I love and approve of myself, and I alone create sweetness and joy in my life " What you need to know is the underlying problem in order to correct it An " empty body cavity " M.O. - removing all those 'superflous' organs is great to collect money but not for healing the body - I like to believe we have all those organs for a reason - lol - even some " back-up " systems On 18 Apr 2007 18:54:27 -0700, RSC <croker92 wrote: Pancreatic Diseases I have a dear friend who is 71 years of age and very healthy until 2 weeks ago she came down with pancreatitis.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Does she have these pains after she eats or drinks..especially after something that has fat in it...hot dogs , milk etc. If she does since they can't find gallstones have a liver sonogram done and she if they report her with " fatty liver " . If she does have that noted I'd urge her to do a liver flush before undergoing any operation they can not substantiate. medusa - <firstgoddess Thursday, April 19, 2007 1:06 PM Re: Pancreatic Diseases Sounds like a fishing expedition to me! - I would not let them even THINK about removing my gallbladder on an assumption just because they don't know what else to do - sounds very scientific, huh?

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 Yes it started one morning after she had eat. She was doing well for a week and had another attack Friday night and is now back in the hospital and to be honest her doctor is less than happy with my questions or thoughts on them not being able to decide what has caused this.......I will ask about the liver thank you.

Guest guest Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 Hello ! I am sorry to hear about the wrong diagnosis by the doctors. She has no gall bladder problem. Since your friend is of 71 yrs of old, I suggest you give here homoeo medicine Natrum Sulph-30c 3 drops in 1/4th cup of acqua water four times daily (morning, noon, evening and bed time). Within 10 days 90per cent of her problem will be going.
