Many people every year are effected by a pancreas attack every year. Some people die of pancreas "c" like Patrick Swasy did just Recently. The severity of the disease is unknown to most of the world population. Without a name people tend to look at it as a temporary thing or something of less importance. Pancreatitis is not tonsillitis, or Broncitis. Until we name it people will co tour to down play it's impact on those of us I diagnosed with it. I say name it and give those of us with it the legitimacy we deserve. Ps. I got mine from a the Army and not everyone got it from drugs or drinking. Please name it to give us a base to start off with to spread awareness.
