Question

Hi respected doctors, I have a blood report showing lipase level of 70 U/L (normal range up to 60) and amylase level of 82 (normal range up to 100). Could this indicate chronic pancreatitis? Please reply.

Slightly elevated lipase alone does not confirm chronic pancreatitis. If you have symptoms pain, indigestion, further imaging may be needed. Please consult a gastroenterologist.
