worrier Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Hi, in 2008 at the age of 66 I went through a Whipples and had part of my Pancreas removed. Fortunately it was benign and have lifetime prescription for Creon 25000. On occasion I get a sensation in my stomach which eventually turns to nausea and I feel hot and cold at the same time. I also get sever tremors and cannot stop shaking. I have to take to my bed, often for two days. I have been given a standby prescription of Ciprofloxacin which I take when these attacks come on. I am not sure but I think the condition is called Cholangitis but am not sure. Has anyone else out there who has been through a Whipples experienced anything similar?
