I've been suffering from chronic pancreatitis since the past 12+ years and got diagnosed with type 1 diabetes a year back. I am currently on novorapid and tresiba for diabetes and enzymes for the CP. I had a nerve block done for the chronic pain. I have lost a lot of weight and would like to know how I can increase my weight bearing in mind the dietary restrictions. I'm 41 years old and weight is around 40 kgs. My medications: Pantocid 40 mg BD duloxetine 20 mg OD Lyrica 75 mg BD Enremin 300 mg TDS with meals Alprax 0.5 mg HS Novorapid as required Tresiba 15 units at bedtime I would appreciate if anyone on the panel could help as I'm a bit desperate now.

Hi we can't give you any medicine for weight gain. You lost weight due to chronic pancreatitis and maybe poor diabetes control. So addressing these two issues help you regain weight. I can optimise your diabetes control and with that you need gastroenterologist help for pancreatitis. Take care.
