Hi, Sir My pancreas is not working at all, I take pancreatin 300 mg tab thrice a day. My PP sugar is 472. I have seen 2 doctors, One doctor suggested insulin twice (before breakfast & dinner). Other doctor suggested Glycomet GP 1 Forte (Glimepiride 1 mg + Metformin 1000 mg) in morning after food & insulin 12 unit after dinner. Which method should I follow?

Pancreas is the site to produce insulin in body. So if the pancreas is diseased the only option left is to give insulin from outside body by an injection. In my opinion glimeperide will not help you.

Asked for male, 32 years old from Gurgaon

Hello doctor. I am having epigastric pain which radiates in back since last two three months which is relieved by walking. The pain remains for couple of hours. I had PPI for 2 months and was also treated for HPylori a month back after endoscopy which came positive however the rest of it was normal. USG was also normal. I constantly have a discomfort in my abdomen region. Recently, I again had the same pain for which I was asked to get an amylase test. The test results was 116 (reference range for lab <90). Is this high or due to pancreatitis? Please suggest?

Asked for male, 31 years old from Asansol

Doctor sir, My brother had severe stomach pain 2 days back at around 1: 30 in the morning. We admitted him and abdominal scan revealed Acute Pancreatitis (Pancreas is Hypoechoic - Do not know what it means). The doctors told that this comes to persons mainly with Smoking and Drinking problems. He did not have any bad habits and it was the first time he had a stomach problem. The doctors told that he should be on IV for 3 days - no food, water or anything. Only fluids thru IV. The pain was pretty severe for him until the evening and at around 5, it subsided and he was Ok. He was able to relax after that and he had pain only when he stretched or doing something. He had some pain in the back as well, but it was far better than the pain he had in the morning. Until around 11, he was perfectly alright and then around 12: 00, his BP started falling and he told like people look in different color. The doctors examined him and his pulse was completely down. They revived him in ICU little bit, he was conscious, but was breathing heavily. His BP was 85-45. We had to put him in Ventilator support and by around 3: 00, he suffered a massive heart attack and he was gone. They tried for nearly 40 minutes after that, but nothing happened. I do not know how he could have died just because of Pancreatitis. Everywhere it says it will take at least 2 weeks, the organs have to fail. But, nothing of that sort happened. I would be grateful if anyone can give me some details on what might have happened, at least we can save someone else. He was only 35.

Pancreatitis is a very bad disease. According to literature almost 30 % die due to this. Sorry to hear about your brother. It normally happens due to gall stones or alcohol.

Dear lybrate-user, Pancreatitis can be successfully treated with Homeopathic medication but will require patience and management as per my guidance so that he heals faster without any complication further .Also note his diabetic index is due to pancreatitis. Fir now please go for LFT Amylase lipase test done along with HbA1c and update the status. For consultation consult back.

Hi Ram
Excess fat deposit on tummy area is due to insulin and glucagon hormone imbalance. To lose tummy fat you should avoid starchy and sugary food exm. chapati, rice, bread, potato. U can use high protein diet exm. pannier, egg, chicken.
Take lipolyzer tummy tablet after lunch and dinner.

Sir I (Aparna bag, 53y, F) am a Pancreatic (Taking Panlipase 25000 thrice a day)& Diabetic (Taking Glimepiride 1 mg + Metformin SR 1000 mg twice a day & insulin 10 IU at night) Patient. Recently Diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. So Doc told me to take (Wysolone 10 mg thrice in morning+Methotrexate 20 mg injection once a week+Folic Acid & HCQ 300 tablet once daily. Q.1- Prior starting this treatment I was taking Glimepiride 1 mg + metformin 500 mg in morning and metformin sr 500 mg in evening. Then my sugar count was FASTING 76 & PP 176. Now it is FASTING 86 & PP 416. So can I take previous medicines not changing all other medicines right now? Q.2- Is the treatment for the rheumatic arthritis is on right track? Q.3 - Is musk needed to wear while taking this wysolone?

Dr. Rakesh Sharma91%(311 ratings)

Your wysolone tablets are causing your sugar to rise. Adjustment of dose of wysolone should solve this issue. Your medicines for rheumatoid arthritis is right but it is good to be managed by a rheumatologist for this as he specialises in management of rheumatoid arthritis. You need not to wear mask if you are on short term course of wysolone. Long term use of wysolone is high doses can cause immunosupression which might necessicitate you of mask.
