A member asked:

What is the life expectancy of someone with hereditary pancreatitus, diabetes and 1 kidney?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hasn't been studied: Hi. That's a very unusual set of conditions, and no such set has been analyzed for life expectancy determination. CF can cause exocrine pancreatic failure and diabetes, but I know of no unifying cause of all 3.
