Patient felt acute pain in december 2019. Patient remained hospitalized. She was diagnosed with pancreatitis ultrasound and ct scan. On 10/02/2020 she was diagnosed with acute pancreatitis through mrcp. Ca19-9 = 14.52 reference (0 - 39). She was advised to go for operation on 21st march 2020 at dmc ludhiana. But due do corona virus it was decided to postpone it. We could not contact doctor at dmc. So I want to ask how much delay is permissible? Also patient was given medicine for 1 month till surgery. Can patient continue taking the medicine?
