Story about Pancreatitis , Budd-Chiari Syndrome.

Necrotizing Pancreatitis

Jan 5, 2019

Year Condition Began: 1980


unsure of which year I first had Budd- Chiari, but diagnosed 2008, but with necrotizing pancreatitis.

Have had pancreas disease for at least 16 years.

Necrotizing Pancreatitis (worst form, just before cancer). Disabled Veteran.

I got sick from chemicals in the USAF. I continued getting sicker until after many, many years of misdiagnosis and crappy doctors, a failed surgery, I was in the hospital for 6 months fighting for my life with these diseases and on a feeding tube, no ability to walk, or move on my own. The surgeons told me there is nothing they can do, and everyday I just live sick and do what I can until I die. The USAF continues to fight me over my benefits, and has been in claims, and in appeals forever.

note: the website does not let me list the correct term for Necrotizing Pancreatitis. Plus I have several more diseases. Spinal disease among them.
