What Causes Severe Pain Around The Pancreas?
I have severe pain in the pancreas area, it feels a lot like a gallbladder attack. I had my gallbladder removed twenty years ago. I do not have any nausea or vomiting going on, could this still a sign of pancreatitis? I also seem to be belching a lot. Juli,
