We'll, I'm extremely blessed and simultaneously cursed! I have amazing marriage, 7 great kids and good life. In an attempt to keep universe balanced, I guess, I've been suffering with chronic pancreatitis for 10 years!! (If you've ever had even acute form, you understand the unbearable, undescribable pain that I endure every day. About 2 yrs ago, it got bad. I lost over 100 pounds in couple months (from malnutrition) and doctor started me on a r?gimen. Before that day I didn't use anything. I've never drank alcohol, therefore leaving the cause of my pancreatitis a mystery. After about 8 months of pain management, my doctor was caught with insurance fraud and I no longer have a doctor. I no longer have medicine. And the most important thing to me every single day is to downplay and mask the pain in front of my children. I have course have turned to self medication giving myself a fighting chance of at least functioning for that day. It has become expensive and it is the one and only Secret I've ever had from my husband. It sucks
