Acute pancreatitis is a serious condition. It can result in long term damage to the pancreas which controls insulin and cortisol production in the body. Drinking any alcohol or drugs during this period where your body is still healing can cause severe lifelong consequences. Enjoy the time with your friends without anything that can damage your health.
