When I had Gall stones 10 years ago the Gall bladder was removed.. then when I had a bad prolonged GERD the local GI thought I needed a Nissen.. that was badly botched and Mayo GI said I had Post operative gastropanesis.. that was 2015.. since every meal is a challenge. Nerves used to empty the stomach were damaged.. But at 87 I am doing pretty well.. it's a fight to keep weight on..
Wow! I am not alone! I have gastroparesis and was just diagnosed a few weeks ago with EPI(my score was 53) that was after many many tests. I have started taking Creon. And I am told they are both life long diagnosis. I am depressed about this because I feel with proper surgery they could have been avoided. I made an appt with a dietitian in a few weeks to help me navigate. Any input would be appreciated. Thank you!
Hi! I hope all is well! At 16 I started with tons of pain and GI issues. I later got diagnosed with Gastroparesis, IBS, Lazy Gallbladder. I am in tons of pain daily, vomit daily, nausea all the time, loose stools, diarrhea and constipation. I have tried everything the doctors are saying but nothing works. I am not with MAYO for gastrology. Should I try them? I do love my doctor though.They are also recomending gallbladder surgery for the lazy gallbladder. Thoughts? My hide scan was 32%.What help with any of these issues? Medication? Procedures?
I have mild gastroparesis, I'm on donperidone, that helps, alot, I asked my Dr if taking out gallbladder would help she said no, I just eat very healthy, and lots fiber I detox once a week with dandelion tea, just in case of sludge in gallbladder, just something I was told buy others, it seems to work.

My gallbladder works at 17% my Dr said it still works, and not really causing pain so why take out? I agree with Dr since taking out gallbladder will cause diarrhea and probably other issues
Thanks for that, they just did endoscopy yesterday and pancreas is abnormal and they said I have to take enzymes every time I eat.

Did gallbladder surgery make pancreas work better

HI! I also have gastropasis and was just diagnosed with a lazy gallbladder. What do I do? Does getting out the gallbladder help?

Why not take out the gallbladder? Do you also have a lazy gallbladder?
My gallbladder works at 17% my Dr said it still works, and not really causing pain so why take out? I agree with Dr since taking out gallbladder will cause diarrhea and probably other issues
