[|AI|]  Hi.noted cholecystectomy several years ago and recent history of pancreatitis presenting as abdominal pain. The location of pain from an inflammation/infection in your pancreas is usually located in the upper portion of your abdomen, epigastric with radiation to left or right side or back area. This is usually accompanied by elevated pancreatic enzymes. It is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a gastroenterologist or do a follow-up with your surgeon, for physical examination and clinical evaluation. Diagnostics (such as ERCP?MRCP, ultrasound, liver function testing, bilirubin, etc.) and management (medical and/or surgical if indications are found) will be directed accordingly. Hope this helps. Good day!!~ Chat Doctor.
