I am a 40 year old female with diabetes and a history of gastric ulcers and chronic pancreatitis. I have been experiancing severe abdominal pain lasting for over 2 weeks. I have been severely nauseated but have not thrown up. Nasea is worse when I am laying down. The pain tends to go straight into my back. I have also been experiencing severe gas as well as alternating bouts of constipation and diarhea. The pain is constant but tends to become worse after eating or drinking. I had emergency surgery on my pancreas 5 years ago. I have a strong family history of various types of cancer. My physician tends not to acknowledge my problem when I tell him or takes routine blood an urine that comes up negative for infections< although my last urine sample did reveal small trace of protien. Any suggestions what may be causing this?
