@bmtrumps hi, shawnkthryn here. I've gotten off all supplements. Mirilax, Metamucil, the bottle w a purple cap. GERD med stopped 3-4 wks. Four days w regular bm. Tonight 1st time I'm w D since 12/12/23. I'm eating sunshine bars. Peeled potatoes, carrots w ginger (for pepper) & Lil bouillon. Stopped all spices incl s&p. Squash, sweet potatoes. No seeds, no popcorn, no preservatives no meat. Boost 30g protein 2-3 a day. Drinking juice diluted w water. Gastroparesis- slow to empty; I'd only go 1x wk - 10 days. Trying to get my biological clock working w o all the taking stuff everytime I turn around. Let you know re my appt this Tues. & food emptying test. Wish you the best. Oh stop rice & corn. Can fruit & can veggies. I'm at 83#'s. Was 105 wt prior to all the crap.

So sorry. I have had all the test and it confirms Gastro paresis the operation. I had to stop the reflux messed up my stomach. I think the nerve that the Gastro paresis, my heartburn has returned. I am back on the prescription drugs, even with the drugs, if I eat anything, I get horrible heartburn. I just need to be more disciplined to eat soft foods I do my own protein shakes but every now and then I want some solid food. I ate enchiladas on vacation and paid for it heartburn for two days today I made six large pancakes with protein powder and 85 of them Constipation is horrible. They just ordered a new medication but it’s 500 a month so I won’t be taking that four. I’m still working on finding the right formula and I know I will if it means eating soup and drinking smoothies for the rest of my life, I will do it. I am 84 years old and will be 85 in January, still in excellent health otherwise Gastro paresis, compared to 84 years old,
I am doing great. Keep me posted on your progress and good luck.
