The pancreas is located behind the stomach. It produces enzymes that are released into the small intestine to break down protein in food. The pancreas also produces insulin, a hormone that helps regulate the amount of sugar in the blood.
Treatment for pancreatitis depends on the underlying cause. Once the cause is treated, most patients experience a full recovery. However, if the condition is left untreated, scarring may occur in the organ. Once the organ becomes scarred, the condition cannot be reversed and the patient requires long-term treatment to manage the symptoms.
COMPLICATIONS
Diabetes: Pancreatitis may lead to temporary diabetes. This condition occurs when the digestive enzymes damage the cells that produce insulin. Common symptoms include increased thirst, frequent urination, increased hunger, weight loss, blurred vision, and fatigue. Once the underlying cause of pancreatitis is treated, the diabetes will resolve.
