Although alcohol is the most common cause of chronic pancreatitis, a large number of people get pancreatitis without any reason, termed idiopathic pancreatitis. It is not possible to predict whether or not you will experience another attack of pancreatitis and there is no treatment to prevent such attacks. Lead a normal life and eat normal food. No special precaution, except abstinence from alcohol, is required. If you do get another attack, you should be seen by a gastroenterologist, who will rule out any local problem in the pancreas (stones, narrowing of the duct, tumour), which may be responsible for this problem.
