As I was away Friday for my rheumatology rounds, Dr. Gregor was nice enough to fill in. He talked about pancreatitis. Please refer to my post on March 12th. The one thing he brought up is genetic/inherited causes of pancreatitis, cystic fibrosis, hypertriglyceridemia (can be associated with diabetes though), IgG4 disease, and some more obscure ones.
So it never hurts to ask about family members with pancreatitis.
