How long will my pancreas hurt

[strawberry]

I'm really worried about my pancreas. For the past few days, I've been experiencing pain in my abdomen and it seems to be coming from my pancreas. Does anyone else have this same experience? How long does the pain usually last? Are there any treatments or ways to reduce the pain? I'm desperate for some help and would really appreciate any advice or information from other forum users.
