Your pancreatic enzymes are normal, you have made the right changes in your lifestyle to avoid further damage on your pancreas.

All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, your results are normal. Abstain from alcohol. Wish you good health!
