Q: Has Steriods Caused You Pancreatities?

I would like to know if anyone else has had a bout with pancreatites while or after under going treatment for asthma? When I take prednisone or solumedrol, I have sever pain on my left side of my body. I have had re-occuring pancreatites for over 10 years, but because it doesn't always come up on blood work, the doctors don't really think its pancreatites. However, the pain is very distinict and I know it is. It has been confirmed 5 times by blood work and once by ct scan.
Is there any other way to diagnose it? Is there any other way to treat it?
Also is there a diet that will help it, other than starving your self?
To those on steriods don't stop taking it, its rare side effect. Always take steriods with food.
