Are Pancreatic Problems And Spider Bites Related?

I have been bitten over 200 times in the past year by spiders. most are fairly small and don t bother me as much. However, well over 12 to 14 are from 7/16 to 1/2 in. They seem to be attracted to cuts. I m currently being tested for Pancreatic problems and was wondering if there was a link there in some way.
