3) What is the treatment of Pancreas Frey procedure in Homeopathy?
There is a surgery of pancreas in which pancreas is cut and joined to jejunum. Also called pancreaticoduodenectomy and jejunostomy. And this procedure is called Frey procedure. Now you have been asked to get this surgery done. When should it be done? What is the indication? When should it be done?
So this is a common question which people ask us or comes in people's mind. Now you need to understand what is Frey procedure?
In this, the duct of the pancreas is cut and that tubular system is connected directly to the jejunum, which is a part of the intestine. This will allow the drainage system, whatever enzymes are produced in it, to go directly to the small intestine, which will help in digestion. Now you are having attacks of pain due to chronic pancreatitis.
Would you get it done? No.
Would you get it done if you had inflammatory changes? No, this is not an indication of it.
The indication of this is that if the ductal system in which your enzyme is draining and there is a problem in that drainage, say there is a narrowing at many places, that is, the duct has become narrow and the enzyme is not able to come forward. This is not at one or two places, but at many places.
Because of this you will have to stand at many places many times to open it. You will have to do this again and again. If you do not do this, then you are getting attacks of pain again and again.
Secondly, if there are large sized stones in the duct, there are many stones of 15 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm, the whole duct is filled with stones. And because of this you are getting repeated attacks of pancreatitis. And you are currently managing your case. All this is happening again and again. It has been six months, one year, two years. And there has been no response to the treatment. In this case, you have to remove that stone. And in this case, if you get Frey's procedure done, it is appropriate.
And the third situation is if there is a case of pancreatitis, there is a large sized tumor in the pancreas. And that tumor is also pressing your MPD somewhere. And due to that, repeated attacks are happening. And many complications are arising. In this situation also, you will remove the tumor.
And if your doctor is indicating you, you will do Frey's procedure here too. You will connect your pancreatic duct system directly to the jejunum. By doing this, your case will be managed for the time being. So, there is an acute attack of pancreatitis. Due to the structure and stone formation, multiple stones and large size of stones, the episodes of pain will stop.
But here you need clarity that your pancreatitis case, the disease which is progressing step by step, that progression will not stop. The progression should also stop. Stone formation should stop. And the drainage system should be properly maintained. To recover from the disease, you need the right homeopathic medicine. And with this medicine, the progression can be stopped. It can also be reversed.
