God bless all these people with this condition.

Omg! This condition sucks! I’m NEVER hungry and food that I ate 2 days ago feels like it’s stuck in my esophagus! My weight gain is the hardest pain for me since I’m 5 feet tall! I gained 30 pounds with a short window of time. I wish there was hope! One doctor sends you to another and all of a sudden, I’m part of a medical tennis match going back and forth looking for answers! Ugh.

I am scared that I have this, I feel hungry, but I can’t eat well. I constantly feel bloted and hungry so I eat less and less. I can only eat when I am almost starving. Maybe I’m just sick though. Also, if you have this my prayers are with you

It feels like something is stuck inside my stomach

im in the Hospital with my 26yr old suffering with this condition🥺😞Lord knows my child has suffered enough with this, n it isnt gettin any better..the exhaustion n helpless ness is heart breaking

I love hate having this, never can sleep etc always feeling sick suck. ..

I’ve had this illness since I was 16 now I’m 21 I hate this illness because it’s like u have the flu but u can never get over it and u never will if u have this illness it’s life long for me I’m in a flare rn and I’ve stayed up almost all night tonight feeling so nauseous I took my nausea medicine my gastro doctor gives me but the pain and the nausea is the worst

That's so sad😭 And I thought I had it bad with ibs. My ibs gives me crazy amounts of gas, cramps and fatigue. GI diseases make working, schooling and having a social life challenging ☹

My wife as it it's a nightmare doctor doesn't know what to do for the best

I had this for 5 years And was screaming 24/7 n I was vomiting so bad n couldn't eat n end up loosing weight.i had surgery and got a peg tube i was so depress n sad n a dark place.I finally got better and healing from my tube almost a year in march🙌🙌I nvr want this AGAIN🙏🙏🙏

It's horrible...

I think the pandemic gave me this. My family forced me to say in my shitty apartment in Brighton, Boston and I barely left my bedroom for two months, had a limited diet, accidentally took Ibuprofen on an empty stomach and was misprescribed both antibiotics & nystatin for a cold that was falsely diagnosed as thrush. (In reality, it was just an seriously adverse reaction to nystatin.) I just pray that I'm not diabetic and that my upcoming procedures are actually approved.

Is there an online support group for this? How can people with severe cases have any kind of life? My 24 year old daughter suffers every moment of everyday! She can’t even work part time anymore. It’s disabling & very depressing. I don’t know how long a person can live with this disease. 😓

It's a pain diagnosed with it two years ago, if your diabetic a lot of food your told to eat isn't good for them.

I don’t know if I have this or not but it feels like my stomach is just giving up on passing food through it I have mild chest pains from time to time and I’m constantly full

I suffered with gastroparesis for a few years. In the end I sought out hypnotherapy which helped out a huge amount. I hate to admit it but what really cured me however was when I got pregnant! The hormones kicked in and took over my body :/ I realise this isn't an answer for everyone though of course. I would really recommend hypnotherapy to anybody suffering with this - it helped me immensely.

I have it I hate it omg I suffer. I also have a tilted esophagus that closes up about mid-point and I can't vomit

Some days it’s just so hard to handle

I think this is caused by severe stress, Which Damages the vagus nerve. This leads to depression. The right antidepresant medication helps, Which is very very hard to find that works for u. Check with your doctor before doing anything.

I had a surgery to repair this. They found so many ulcers my stomach adhered to my liver. They gave me kinda like a gastric bypass and I was underweight. I'm tall (5"8). It's been a full year now and I still cannot stomach anything but 2 foods. I'm either now totally grossed out from previous unfortunate vomiting or fearful of what might happen. I don't know if I have gastroperese anymore but I cannot find anyone that can help. My stomach specialist didn't teach me how to eat again after showing Starvation in my lab work. I don't know who else to ask for resources. I'd appreciate any help I can get. The thought of eating upwards of 7x a day sounds like my personal hell. I don't care about my weight. This isn't vanity it's pain and fear of pain

Been dealing with it for 4 years now😔

Watching this makes me think I do have this i have had these symptoms for months I really need help getting tested.

I juice and make sure I chew my food properly can be annoying, but I got used to it.

i’m so scared. i just got diagnosed today. today i think my life is changed. i was suppose go to college 7 hours away in 4 months and i don’t know if that’s gonna happen now

I cant digest anything 😢😢😢 god please im getting tired of

I have it and have unfortunately been on tpn before. now I have a feeding tube, have to vent my g all day long, feed into my j, iv fluids and meds due to malabsorption issues, a ton of nausea medicine, and endless hospital visits for tearing my stomach, intestinal blockage, leaky bowels, sepsis, on and off full digestive tract paralysis, slow colonic transit, surgeries, muscle wasting, on and off dumping syndrome on the rare occasions I’m not backed up, various acute organ failures, chronic gastritis, chronic esophagitis, chronic hypokalemia, dehydration, chronic gerd, a crappy immune system, tremendously dry skin causing cracks, rapid weight loss or gain, hair loss, hormone issues, etc etc etc and a partridge in a pear tree!! Lol. There are worse cases out there though. It’s definitely not an easy condition and many of us have secondary issues, or an accompanying primary illness. POTS is common, so is MCAS, diabetes, PCOS, neuromuscular disorders like MS or muscle dystrophy, cancer, SIBO, IBS, neuropathy, vagus nerve damage, Lupus, raynauds syndrome, fibromyalgia, ulcerative colitis, etc. you’re constantly in pain, constantly nauseous, constantly throwing up because food has been sitting in your stomach fermenting, or worse, the ones who can’t throw up to alleviate the pressure or get the rotten food out. Pain management drs don’t like treating you because most pain medicines further slow down your gi tract, there’s a gastric pacemaker but it doesn’t increase motility, it just helps with the nausea but it only works for 50% of people with less severe symptoms. It’s rare, so not many drs or hospitals in general know much about it, or how to help improve your quality of life. There are medications to help motility but after awhile they stop working so it’s best to alternate, and the really good medication is banned in America unless your dr fills out some lengthy forms to get an exemption, otherwise you have to order it from Canada, all because US pharmaceutical companies consider it competition, and paid their lobbyists to get our govt to ban it. However, it can cause heart issues or worsen existing issues. Even a lot of the nausea medicines can cause permanent uncontrollable muscle ticks. If anyone out there sees this, and think you might have it, ask your doctor to do a ges, Sitz marker test, or the smart pill. That’ll let you know how well you’re digesting food. Some can be diagnosed by an endoscopy as well. I was NPO in the hospital for 3 days and they still found food in my stomach when they did the scope. A few of these tests can be tricky. If you’re in a flare or just constantly have crap motility, then it’ll show on the test to confirm GP. However, if you’re not in a flare, or have good days, your results will come back normal. I’d ask for a repeat when your symptoms are horrible. If you’re recently diagnosed, need a support group, or are a caregiver, family member or friend of someone with this, there are a ton of good groups on fb.

Yea this condition sucks. 😢 always have to worry about what you eat and whats in it

I found I have this today April 7th 2023.......It's scaring me my food sits there doesn't move.......I wonder I have so much pain......This gastroparesis they said have it severe 😢...........

I have this an I literally feel full all the time. I just spent 2 weeks in the hospital because everytime I would eat I woudl throw it right back up. It's super painful as well. I still am having the issues even tho they sent me home. I literally eat 2 to 3 bites of food an thats all I eat a day. I lost 40 pounds in 3 months. I had to have blood because I wasn't getting food to get my vitamins. I got very sick. An it hurts as well. This is miserable.

I have Gastroparesis and it sucks. I am sick all the time . nausea and vomiting. 1:31

My symptoms are Acid reflux Burping Constipation Heartburn Nausea without vomiting, I was feeling better but then it came back Is this gastroparesis or something else?? 😔😔😔 If i dont have gastreoparisis im going to do what I can to not develop it

Burps from hell

One of my close friend had Gastroparesis, he have tried almost every possible way and every type of medicine.But at the end he used Ayurvedic Medicines from Planet Ayurveda and got relief. After that I also always preferred Planet Ayurveda and recommend this to everyone.

I had to have a feeding tube in for 6 months cuz my gastroparesis has gotten soo bad.

It sounds like I have this Condition..because I Can't for the life of me Figure out why I don't Have normal bowel Movements..this is GUT Wrenching to say the Least.i really have to Discuss this topic with My family doctor.

Thanks I guess?!?

Theres been about 3 times i ended up almost going through with suicide cuz the pain is so bad i wish Alina health and MNGI actually cared about people I’m bed ridden most of the time EVEN WITH GOOD DIET if i diet i guess oh well 😅 it also feels like my skin is on fire 🔥

Didn't that girl from in that movie merical from heaven have this 🤨🤔

Body will cure itself if given what it needs

Benzodiazepines cause it too

If a god exists...he has a sick sense of humor” The only comfort you get is throwing up” But not too much because you have to deal with the pain” in your sternum area and back” I wish there was a cure☹️ “I’m currently in day 5 of nausea” And close to another hospital stay. This condition is mentally draining.

first thing stop eating gluten and a lot if not all starchy foods limit fodmaps in diet avoid most dairy foods. limit sugars don't drink alcohol or smoke and see how much better you can feel.
