The pancreatic exocrine gland, is not found directly in your brain or neck region where most body glands are, instead it’s found in your pancreas. Now pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, of Type 1-2 Diabetes can all be a cause of the decreased function of the pancreas, but I would suggest Lilah get checks by her Physicians and hopefully he can see exactly what is causing the problem, if it’s pancreatitis, the doctor can put her on pain medications and changed up her diet, or if it’s a severe case she might need surgery.
