Hello, Calcifications are indications of the tissue not being functional anymore. Since the pancreas is a large enough gland it would compensate even if there are certain non-functioning areas. Unfortunately, If calcification has already occurred then apart from surgery it is not possible to calcify the organ Low weight, frequent trips to the bathroom along-with excess hunger may also indicate that you may have elevated blood sugar. Kindly get a fasting and post radial blood glucose test done. Get the reports evaluated by a doctor. Thank you for your query.
