Over the past year, my mother has been having bouts of nausea, needle like stabbing pain in the abdominal area and a general heaviness feeling with lack of appetite for days. This would occur most often when she had a meal with fats in it.
It resulted in 2 trips to the ER. One trip diagnosed her with pancreatitis, and the second found she had an enlarged bile duct. I assume those issues are somehow connected. With pancreatitis, there is no known cure. Treatment involves major diet changes by cutting out fat and lowering cholesterol intakes. The "solution" involves surgically removing the gallbladder altogether, which is BS. My sister kept pestering my mother to have to removed. I tried to get her on some of the natural treatments, which included large amounts of lemon juice, and apple cider vinegar (which lowers cholesterol). It helped a little but she would still have flare ups.
At that time I had some BPC-157 in the fridge, which I used for a few injuries. I had read studies that showed the protective effects on the liver, and also as a potential treatment for IBS. So I crossed my fingers and hoped for the small chance it may help with pancreatitis. Luckily, I found two studies which was pretty promising:
"Salutary and prophylactic effect of pentadecapeptide BPC 157 on acute pancreatitis and concomitant gastroduodenal lesions in rats."
"BPC 157 therapy to detriment sphincters failure-esophagitis-pancreatitis in rat and acute pancreatitis patients low sphincters pressure."
BPC-157 is also stable in stomach acid, so I gave her around 300-400 mcg ED to drink. If it didn't show any results then I would have switched it to subq injections. For a week or so when I asked her if it was working she would respond with "I don't know". Then slowly she would say "I think so". Around 3 weeks ago she went on vacation for 10 days, and pretty much ate somewhat greasy food in restaurants every day. Surprisingly, she had no flareups. She hasn't had any flareups since then. She still tries to keep her fat intake at a lower amount, but has been eating more normally now, versus having almost 0 fat intake (which isn't healthy at all but she had no choice).
I've taken her off the BPC for a break as she has been running it for around 2 months now. She has been asking for her dose everyday now like she needs her fix.
I assume the reason she hasn't had any flareups since then is because of BPC-157, and if so, this peptide was a serious life saver.
