Pancreatitis question?

by Symptom Advice on April 15, 2011

6 months ago a did some blood work to see how things looked in there. I've been on a drinking binge for years up to that point. they said my triglyceride level was too high (462) and I was at risk for panreatitis. Being the drunk that I was I continued drinking and had this funny pain, but mild in my abdominal area. I looked up symptoms for pancreatitis and noticed I experienced some in the past, such as feeling nasuas in the morning, stincky poo, once I remember feeling sore in the abdominal area at one other time, but I never had any serious pain. well I quit my old ways, but after a few weeks I started drinking occasionally, about once a week or two and never more than 3 or 4 beers. for the first time in my life I've been able to control my drinking, simply out of this great fear that if I kept up my ways, I would eventually be hospitalized. well in this past half year I haven't had any of those symptoms, but I'm afraid those 3 or 4 beers once every week or two will still screw me over one day. I don't wanna quit completely, I think this fear will continue to control my ways, but what do you think? does this sound serious enough to where I should quit completely?
