Pancreatitis: Is caused commonly by gallstones, pancreatitis, meds, elevated fats, or trauma. Do you have any of these conditions? If so, you need to correct the underlying problem. Maybe your GI isn't sure that it is pancreatitis. You pain could be from 100 other causes. Ask your primary doctor to prescribe pain med for you.
