A Reconsideration of Chronic Pancreatitis, December 22, 1999

<!-- translated-chunk:42/63 -->

Chronic pancreatitis has been discussed extensively in the preceding sections! It is common for this disease to cause fatty liver, lead to left-sided chest pain that is misdiagnosed as coronary heart disease, result in left-sided back pain, and also cause epigastric pain. At the end of the Ji Mao year, I treated Mr. Li from the Provincial Party Committee. The patient had experienced slightly left-sided back pain for several years, accompanied by palpitations, shortness of breath, and chest tightness. Despite treatment with Gualou Xiebai Banxia Tang combined with Guanxin II No. for chronic myocardial ischemia, there was no significant improvement. After careful consideration, I concluded that this was indeed chronic pancreatitis. I then prescribed a formula for combined gallbladder and pancreatic syndrome to Mr. Li, and he recovered after 10 doses.
