Hi there,

I have acute on Chronic Pancreatitis, Pancreatic failure and Gastroparesis. When my acute flair ups happen my Liver sometimes gets problems too. I am part fed by parenteral nutrition via a jejynostomy. I am looking for herbs to reduce, swelling/inflammation and pain and to improve digestion. I am not sure the best combinations or what herbs interact. Is blue flag suitable or are other herbs more beneficial? Would you suggest a combination or one at a time? Many thanks!

Dear Alice,

1. For Pancreatitis, Take Bitter Gourd. Have 3-4 teaspoons of fresh juice daily for a month. It helps in reducing the inflammation of the Pancreas. Take it for a month.
Also, take 1 dose of Pancreatinum 30. This is homeopathic medicine. You can consult a homeopath for this.

2. For Gastroparesis, Take the Liquorice root. Grind it. Boil half teaspoon in one cup of water. Drink just before every meal thrice a day.

3. For Diarrhea, Take 3 teaspoons of Psyllium Seed Husk in a cup. Add water and a little sugar. Mix well. Eat it. Follow it with half a cup of yogurt. Repeat it thrice a day.
You may also take lime water instead of yogurt. For any kind of Liver problems, have Milk Thistle capsules. Take 1 capsule each day for 1 month.
