Hi and welcome from me too.
Don't worry about replying individually to posts unless there is something specific you want to address, as we can all see your replies and are alerted when the thread is updated..... just to save yourself the trouble of duplicating posts.
I believe @mikeyB also has chronic pancreatitis whereas @eggyg had surgery to remove part of her pancreas so her experience may be slightly different.
What medication are you on to control your diabetes? Do you have insulin and if so which one(s)? Hopefully you are on a basal/bolus system. Do you have flare ups when things are worse and then periods when it is settled? My mother had several acute pancreatitis events which landed her in ITU but I understand that chronic pancreatitis can occur without you even being aware other than BG levels being less controlled. Hopefully you don't get pain with yours.
Make yourself at home on the forum and if you have any questions, feel free to ask. You might get a whole range of answers but hopefully at least one of them will be helpful.
