Do you think resting a laptop on the region of the pancreas cooks it? Actually, I'm not really kidding.
I used to rest my laptop on my lap. It actually would rest on my upper abdomen. It was warm. Very warm at times.
Would that be the equivalent of leaving something on the stove on a low heat? If so, would the laptop, in effect, be cooking the pancreas.
I used to think the waves from the laptop might have hurt my pancreas. But maybe that wasn't
it at all. Maybe it was simply the heat radiating from the laptop into my pancreas and literally cooking it as though I were a turkey being prepped for Thanksgiving dinner.
Now, if I am using a laptop it either rests on a laptop lap desk or on an actual table. I no longer allow the laptop to rest directly on my abdomen.
It feels wrong... unsafe... when the laptop is directly on my stomach. I've never heard anyone ever say anything about my hypothesis. Don't care.
There is a saying, 'If it doesn't feel right, don't do it.' It doesn't feel right to have the laptop on my abdomen so I no longer do it.
I don't think that action alone caused my severe acute pancreatitis
but it could have attributed to it.
Just thought I'd put it out there...
