Hello doctor,
My mother is 63 yr old diabetic for 12 yrs and had digestion issues for a long years.. earlier gerd was suspected and she was on ppi.. since two yrs she started having muscle loss but not much of weight.. Then we took a CT scan with contrast which had the following impressions:
completely atrophic pancreas with fatty replacement of the pancreatic parenchyma.Dilated pancreatic duct(7mm) with large chunky calculi within the duct in the neck/ head/uncinate region.
Blood tests like glucose,CBC, creatinine,lipid and liver function are normal.
Endoscopy impression: Lax og junction
CA-19.9 test - 18
Attached are her MRCp reports.
The doctor advised for surgery as the stones were big and might become risky later, right now she doesn't have any pain.
kindly advice if it's possible to cure without surgery.
Kindly advice the treatment plan??

Thank you for sharing the detailed history of your motherâs health â I can understand how concerning this must be for your family. Based on the findings you've shared, your mother seems to be dealing with Chronic Calcific Pancreatitis, indicated by atrophic pancreas, fatty replacement, and large intraductal calculi. Despite her current lack of pain, the dilated pancreatic duct with multiple stones is a sign of longstanding pancreatic stress, which can potentially worsen over time if not properly managed.
While surgery is often recommended in such cases to prevent future complications like infections, ductal obstruction, or sudden flare-ups of pancreatitis, itâs understandable to look for non-surgical alternatives â especially when sheâs stable and asymptomatic.
In classical homeopathy, our focus is not just on symptom relief, but also on regulating pancreatic function, reducing inflammation, and preventing further damage, by supporting the body's natural healing mechanism. With careful individualization based on her physical constitution, diabetic history, and digestive complaints, we have been able to help many patients manage chronic pancreatic conditions without invasive procedures, especially when caught early and monitored closely.
However, given the complexity of her case and presence of calculi, a thorough assessment is essential. We would need to review her imaging reports (including MRCP), pathology findings, and current complaints in detail. In some cases, supportive homeopathic treatment alongside monitoring may help delay or avoid surgery, provided there are no acute symptoms or risk factors.
I would recommend scheduling a detailed consultation so we can plan an individualized and holistic treatment protocol with regular follow-up.

For Pancreatic issue she will need surgery either endoscopic intervention by Pancreatic ERCP Or can directly go for surgery.But according to age and Diabetes point of view it will better to go for endoscopic surgery after gastroenterologist consultation.
For LAX OG Junction only oral medication will be sufficient in this age.
