Hope you're feeling better soon. Get some rest and see the doctor right away if the pain continues.

This is the diagnosis:
FDA links Januvia to pancreatitis
September 28, 2009 | By Tracy Staton
Concerned by post-marketing cases of pancreatitis, FDA is adding the reports to labeling on Merck's (MRK) diabetes drug Januvia (sitagliptin) and a combo form of the drug, Janumet. The agency is recommending that doctors monitor their patients after starting them on either drug, and after increasing their doses. Plus, the new labeling will point out that Januvia hasn't been studied in patients with a history of pancreatitis, so doctors should be extra cautious about using the drug in those people.
FDA says it has reviewed 88 cases of acute pancreatitis in patients using Januvia or Janumet, reported between October 2005 and February of this year. Some 66 percent were hospitalized, with four admitted to ICU. Nineteen of the 88 cases occurred within 30 days of starting one of the drugs, and more than half of the 88 cases cleared up once the drug was stopped. "Based on the temporal relationship... FDA believes there may be an association," the agency said on its website.
Merck, however, said its data don't show an increased risk of pancreatitis from Januvia. "Merck has thoroughly reviewed the safety data for sitagliptin, and sitagliptin was not associated with an increase in the incidence of pancreatitis in preclinical studies or in clinical trials of up to two years in duration with more than 6,000 patients," Senior VP DR. John Amatruda said in a statement. "Merck has also carefully reviewed post marketing adverse experience reports, and Merck believes these data do not demonstrate that a causal relationship exists between sitagliptin and pancreatitis."

I thought the doc had taken you off the Januvia.

Good morning. I am doing some what better, not completely well but getting there. Dr. Cheek decided a while back that I needed to try the medicine again to give it another chance as she believed this was the answer for my condition. I stayed on it longer this time before the flare up, but this one was severe, so I am off of it for good.
The girls are doing well and staying happy. It won't be long now before we leave for the Rally in Ohio. I am loooking forward to our trip this summer after then Rally visiting family we haven't seen in a while. I am having new tires and wheels put on the camper next week and this should put an end to tire failure unless I run over something which can always happen.
Okay it is time for me to go and walk the girls, talk with you later.

Another set of tires? You must be upgrading to new rims for some reason?
Thanks for the info and have a great day!

I am going to G614 Good Year tires and that requires a wheel or rim that will hold 110 PSI.
