Chronic Pancreatitis - I quit taking Creon 10 sometime in July. I did not have the money to buy it?

If your not on Social Security Disability at this time, I really think you should consider it. Believe it or not, one of the list items for approval is pancreatitis with weight loss. It will give you medical coverage which you badly need. If you haven't worked enough for the credits to collect, you should apply for Supplemental Social Security. You can die from pancreatitis, I know, I almost did. I've had a collapsed lung, a pseudo-cyst and many other complications (amazingly not weight loss). I know Creon 10 is expensive, you should take the people's advice that have posted on this forum already, but you should also consider state assistance too. Before my social security was approved, I had SAGA, just a word of warning though, once I was approved for SSDI, I was dropped from the state assistance (it takes two years to be approved for Medicare from the date your first filed for SSDI or SSI).

Call your state's department of social services and apply for medical assistance. Being ill will also raise limits on other state programs such as food stamps.

I hope you already have assistance on this.
