How to lower/cure high lipase serum

Without finding cancer or other causes throughout the GI system pancreatitis can arise from autoimmune factors which are more complicated to diagnose and treat. While acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine can certainly be helpful for a broad range of GI conditions and autoimmune conditions as well - proper diagnosis by the practitioner is key.

Now with regards to acupuncture and fairly complicated conditions you should expect to have treatment more on the order or 3-6 months - not just a few times. I wouldn’t expect much of anything to happen, particularly if your issues are arising from autoimmune factors, in the 5-8 treatment time frame.

We could potentially help you to ascertain a more appropriate TCM diagnosis, but we would have to know far more information that we generally feel comfortable asking in a public forum. The best option would be to find a Chinese Medicine practitioner who practices both acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine - and who has experience with autoimmune conditions (or at least is fully trained in Chinese Medicine and has been in practice for more than 7 or 8 years) and see them for a minimum of 3 months.

Generally speaking a combination of acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine is going to lead to the best result.
