It is important because it can help to diagnose problems with the pancreas. It is basically an enzyme that is produced by the pancreas and it helps to break down carbohydrates.

Your doctor may also order the test if you have pancreatitis symptoms which in most cases are related to abdominal bloating indigestion & severe pain.

4. What is the procedure for the test?

This is a diagnostic test used to detect the presence of amylase in a sample of body fluid. The test is used to diagnose pancreatitis or inflammation of the pancreas. The test is also used to monitor the progress of treatment for pancreatitis.

The test is performed by taking a sample of blood, saliva, or urine and testing it for the presence of the enzyme amylase. The test can also be performed using a sample of pancreatic juice or tissue.

If the test is positive, it indicates that there is inflammation of the pancreas. The test is not specific for pancreatitis, and a positive result may be seen in other conditions, such as gastrointestinal disorders.

The test is usually ordered when a person has symptoms of pancreatitis, such as abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and weight loss. The test may also be ordered when a person has a family history of pancreatitis.

5. How can I test my Amylase at home?
