A member asked:

For my brother, mrcp test confirm bulky pancreas. so doctor gave panlipase 25000 for a month. thus his treatment is in right track ?

Need more info: Hard to make a judgement without knowing more of your brother's medical history. He has to trust his doctor. If he is very concerned about his care then a second opinion may be warranted with a gastroenterologist.
