Suggestion about ERCP AND ESWL

Question

Asked for Female, 43 Years

Hello, I am suffering from pancreatitis from 2021. And was having Pancrehenz 10000 as advised by the Dr. Last week with pain when I visited he advised me ESWL AND ERCP. I completed the ESWL AND ERCP PROCEDURE,but the dr has advised me to undergo another sitting of ERCP AND ESWL as there are 2 more larger stones which could not be removed. I am worried about it. Kindly advice what should I do.

Sometimes multiple sessions help in clearing the duct,but your disease can't be cured with ERCP and ESWL,it helps in pain,if you don't have have pain, donot go for ERCP , continue pancrehenz
