Diagnosis of pancreatitis can be made very early in the disease by noting high levels of pancreatic enzymes circulating in the blood (amylase and lipase). Later in the disease, and in chronic pancreatitis, these enzyme levels will no longer be elevated.
Amylase testing is performed to diagnose a number of diseases that elevate amylase levels. Pancreatitis, for example, is the most common reason for a high amylase level.

Brakes, CV Joints, wheel bearing or a tire with a slipped belt. That is a difficult one to diagnose without hearing the noise.
You could have an infection or a more serious problem. No one can diagnose your health problems online -- even based on the symptoms you provided. You should contact a medical professional/gynecologist for answers to your specific questions and to get an in-person evaluation and any necessary tests or medications.

Pancreatitis in cats may cause lethargy.
"Amylase serum levels will rise with chronic pancreatitis." I am currently researching the effects on serum amylase and lipase in relation pancreatitis as part of a college course I am taking. What I have learned is that the amylase level will be elevated in ACUTE pancreatitis, but will be below the "normal" range in CHRONIC pancreatitis. In addition the lipase levels "parallel" the amylase levels, but lipase is a bit slower to rise and fall. They both elevate with acute pancreatitis, and both fall below "normal" range with chronic pancreatitis. One of my best references in researching these lab values inrelation to pancreatitis is the National Institute of Health (NIH) website.
Pancreatitis literally means "Inflammation of the Pancreas". Your lungs and pancreas are not part of the same system so lung pancreatitis doesn't exist.
Jaundice is a condition that can occur in severe cases of Pancreatitis. Most often, jaundice occurs in patients who have contracted pancreatitis due to alcohol abuse.
Pancreatitis is the inflammation of the pancreas whereas hepatitis is the inflammation of the liver.
well i have pancreatitis too but too bad no you cant sorry pal
It could but probably would not. Acute pancreatitis is usually temporary due to alcohol, drugs, ect. Things that can be changed or eliminated entirely. Chronic pancreatitis is caused by other things. Gallstones, problems with the pancreas itself, ect. But with either type of pancreatitis diet plays a big part. People that suffer from chronic pancreatitis learn very quickly what can be tolerated and what cannot. And either kind of pancreatitis can be deadly, and is extremely painful.
The word "diagnose" has one open syllable.
Yes, the pancreas is inflamed and often times infected during pancreatitis making it a painful condition. IV or oral pain medication is often paired with the treatment of pancreatitis.
Chronic pancreatitis--or continuing inflammation of the pancreas that results in permanent damage to this organ--can develop from long-standing, recurring episodes of acute (periodic) pancreatitis.
