how to keep from having another pancreanitis attack again?


Question:
I had pancreatitis back in April for 10 days. I was hospitalized for 8. I had my gall bladder removed 4 weeks ago because of a large gall stone but the doctor said my high tryglcerides cause to pancreatitis attack. I have always had high tryglerides and cholesterol levels especially since my hysterectomy last year. Ever since my gall bladder has been removed my stomach is so much bigger, or it seems. I cant fit into my old clothes that i wore before. After I eat I dont feel great and my stomach feels bloated. Pancreatitis is very dangerous and can be deadly I dont want to be a another statistic. Does anyone have any suggestion how to hopefully prevent another attack? It does scare me Im only 39 years old and have a beautiful family to take care of. Has anyone been in my situation before and what have you done to take care of your self?

Answers:
High triglycerides are usually caused from high sugar/sweets intake. Therefore, I suggest you decrease your sugar intake.
