Anyone have problems with pancreas?

Our daughter has Celiac and pancreas insufficiency. This causes diarrhea every time she goes to the bathroom. She 

takes medication to make up for the insufficiency, but the doctors say the diarrhea will never go away. Anyone here have this problem? Thank you.

We have had a few members who have had this issue.  Not sure they will respond, but I hope they do.  In the meantime, use the search box.  I think you will find plenty of past responses.  I am pretty sure your daughter can heal.  How long has she been on the gluten-free diet?

Yeah, been dealing with that for years, mine is due to nerve damage from gluten ataxia, nerve test a few years led to this being found out. It has slightly improved the last few years but I still take porcine pancreas enzymes with meals along with extra enzymes in ratio to my macros.  But I also have UC that contributes to my diarrhea.
It would probably depend on how hers was caused or what is causing it, on time to heal or if it will.

Yep! I was hospitalized for 3 days with pancreatitis when I was 16. Doctors never confirmed if it was cause by celiac or a glutening or anything.

      We had the follow up endoscopy 1 year out from the first one. We left that day and they said visually it looked good so he thought she'd be negative again. Results came back this week as celiac sprue present and level Marsh 3A. So she doesn't have much damage but she is now positive for celiacs... Just thought I'd post in case in takes anyone else a year to get a diagnosis.

      @thejayland10, did you read this article?

      I need to supplement my vitamin intake and was told AG1 was a good product.  I checked their website and they claim to be gluten-free, but I see that barley is one of the ingredients.  If the product is gluten-free how can it safely contain barley?

      @nataliallano, whatever else can be said, you need to get serious about eating gluten free. Lots of people with celiac disease are like you. We call them "silent celiacs". They have few or no GI symptoms and falsely assume no damage is being done to their body by continuing to consume gluten. Neurological damage is one of them.

      Good day, From browsing this forum, I've come to find out that even on a gluten-free diet, many people seem to take years for their antibodies to go down to normal levels, and also that hidden gluten could keep the levels from going down to normal indefinitely. Shouldn't that mean that a celiac person would have a high possibility of testing positive given that they had gone gluten free for less than 2 years or so, and especially if they had not been careful about cross-contamination or had cheat days? The criteria for the gluten challenge makes it seems like the possibility of false negative is high in general.
