HI. The enzymes are elevated, means there can be a problem with the head of the pancreas. This is as per your symptoms. You need an MRI for the area to get a proper diagnosis, and also an ERCP (endoscopy)... Get a proper diagnosis under the care of a Gastroenterologist. Till then stop fatty foods. Take plenty of oral fluids if tolerated. If not possible to take orally, you may need an admission and further management.
