Ten years ago I got a mild pancreatic inflammation, and since then my Amylase values have been elevated from time to time. The last 6-9 months they have been constantly elevated, about 80 (10-65). I have quite bad stomach aches on the left upper side of the abdomen, under the ribcage - going out to the back. A CT as well as an ultrasound showed a normal pancreas, so my doc doesn't think it's really anything wrong.
I have been on digestion enzymes since two years back, but they have not really helped bringing the amylase value down.
1) How common is pancreatic problems when suffering from ME/CFS?
2) Is there any literature on this, that I can present to my doctor?
3) What other tests should be done to rule our that something is wrong with the pancreas?
Would really appreciate some advice on this
