Elevated Lipase Anyone

[DVK]

If anyone has ever had elevated Lipase please reply and what did they say, I have had it off and on for years they say celiac disease can cause it, but the thought of Pancreatic Cancer scares me consantly.

What did you figure out with this?  Does anyone else also experience this?  I do.

Deezer,

I did not have elevated Lipase enzymes.

But I did have elevated ALT liver enzymes that got better on a gluten free diet.

To answer your question celiac can cause elevated lipase levels the same way it can elevate liver enzyme levels.

Here is the research on this topic entitled "Unexplained elevated serum pancreatic enzymes: a reason to suspect celiac disease."

according to the researchers finding's it can occur  in 1 of 4 celiacs.

quoting their conclusion.

CONCLUSIONS:

"We demonstrated a frequency of about 25% of elevated pancreatic enzymes values in celiac disease patients, including subjects without gastrointestinal manifestations and apparently asymptomatic subjects. The finding of elevated serum amylase or lipase level, in the absence of signs of pancreatic disease, would appear to suggest a need to screen for celiac disease".

I hope this is helpful but it is not medical advice.
