Yes, in 2020 with severe Gastroparesis. I had many other digestive disorders prior, so medication was not an option as most of it already stopped working for me, and the disease was already severe so my options were all surgical. I have only gotten the gastric stimulator so far but I feel like I will bee needing a feeding tube in the next year or so. This disease really effected my life and is very hard to manage. I can't eat and function or go out in public, so I have to plan my meals around working, errands, etc. I don't have a social life anymore because I'm exhausted from the day to day basics so I rest on days off. And diet doesn't matter for flares in my case. The stimulator helped me stop throwing up, but I still get the debilitating nausea about 50% of the time. My main problem with the stimulator is only having one person in my area that can program it, so I can't see any other GI specialists.
