No is like suicide
If you have had pancreatitis, you know how bad it hurts and know that you do not wish to go thru the pain again. I have had chronic paincreatitis and have been in the hospital 4 times in the last two years. Everytime I went was with projectile vomiting and excrushiating pain. Can you guess what my problem was. I was to convinced that ahh I gave it alittle time I can drink again. WRONG. When the Dr's tell you NO, listen to them. Each trip cost me 1 1/2 weeks to the hospital and I did that 4 times. That's also 1.5 months out of work. Can you afford that? Insurance stopped paying after the first trip saying it was a pre-existing condition and I now have a medical bill hovering around 100,000 dollars to pay off all because I thought I was tough enough to drink again. This is my own personal story, stupid as it is, maybe you can learn from it and make better choiced than I did
It's recommended that you stay as far away from it as possible. If your pancreatitis was caused from alcohol it is because you have abused it in the past or you are a rare case in which a person can not process the alcohol well. There are a variety of reasons as to why you can get pancreatitis. I myself have had pancreatitis TWICE from what is thought to be alcohol. If an undefined amount enters my body my pancreas will get inflamed. It is best that you stay away from alcohol altogether.
Of course! Just like you did BEFORE you got pancreatitis! See how easy that was?
No, you really shouldn't. It's pretty much like suicide!
You know how bad it hurts to have pancreatitis. You end up going through it all over again.

What shouldn't you do when you've had pancreatitis?
One of the major things to refrain from after pancreatitis is alcohol, especially if alcohol abuse is what caused it in the first place. Alcohol abuse and gall stones account for 80% to 90% of all cases of acute pancreatitis. You should also limit yourself to a low fat diet, especially during the first couple weeks following. This will allow your pancreas to continue to heal as well as keep your stomach settled. Directly after pancreatitis, your enzyme levels may still be a little "out of whack" causing the stomach difficulty with digestion. In short, don't drink and don't eat fatty foods.

Can you drink alcohol four days after a stent operation?
I am assuming it depends on the type of stent you had placed. If it was a common bile duct stent or pancreatic duct stent due to problems with pancreatitis, no, you should not drink for a long time, if ever. Pancreatitis can be fatal. You would be likely to suffer another episode only 4 days post-op. After my own common pancreatic stent surgery two years ago, I was told by my GI to abstain from all alcohol for a year (for safe measure.) After one year, he said it was okay (in my case) to drink a beer or two, but no liquor. He said I could try red wine, as well, but it gives me really bad heartburn, which is scary if you've ever had pancreatitis. After one year of no alcohol, I am now able to have 2 or 3 beers, occasionally, with no ill effects.
