Hi , she is suffering from Chronic Calcific Pancreatitis. She must be having recurrent pain because of improper drainage of pancreatic juice into small bowel ( Duodenum). The best option is Surgical drainage ( bypass between pancreas to small bowel). As your are in Hydrabad , the BEST doctor you deal with is Dr.TLVD PRASAD BABU ( YASHODA HOSPITAL ). Just meet him once , will solve your problem.
