Poor Abby. I am concerned that she is having a different problem than the pancreatitis. My biggest concern is that she may have a inflammed disc in her neck that is cause her a lot of pain and/or some neurological issues. I would have your vet do an exam and see if she needs some anti-inflammatories and pain meds. Your vet will be able to do some spinal X-rays if needed. I hope this helps and she starts to feel better really soon.
