A member asked:
Had 1 episode of idiopathic mild acute pancreatitis at age 29. no family history of pancreatitis. chance of hereditary pancreatitis high?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hereditary: You could get a genetic study to see if you have the gene present in people with hereditary pancreatitis. If you have family members with idiopathic pancreatitis flareups then you probably don't need to go through genetic testing and just continue to abstain from alcohol.
