Increased pancreatic enzymes



Recommended Posts

I was two weeks post op and my PCP took blood work. I'm now three weeks post op and he called me with the results. I have elevated pancreatic enzymes and he wants me to do another blood test tomorrow. I messaged my surgeon to let him know and to ask if this is something that is common after surgery that ultimately resolves itself. Hopefully I'll hear back early tomorrow. Has anyone else had this issue before?

I do, but I have no pains and my surgeon had said that if I end up with gallbladder issues after surgery it shouldn't happen after quite a while (after a lot of weight loss), but who knows.

I hope it is something simple. I did a bit of research and turns out you can have an increase in enzymes just from having a surgery. I'm hoping that's all it is, but sure doesn't help with my anxiety. Going to be a long week for the next test results.
