Severe abdominal pain
My father 54 years old , has been treated for pancreatitis 6 months ago. He is talking medicines pento I'd 40mg and antoxid. He consumes alcohol but diluted and in small amounts maybe once a week. After he felt he's fine, he started having spicy food once a week. Everything seemed fine but all of a sudden he started having abdominal pain and it got really severe and unbearable. He felt like vomiting but nothing came out except cough. We are in the hospital, got him painkillers but problem is yet to be diagnosed. Is this pancreatitis again?
