Hi @heidimarie123
My recent transit study actually shows no indication of gastroparesis, but I am finding continuing to learn more about it helps me understand myself more. Now that you bring up the idea of our bodies responding differently to left over carbs that have sat in the fridge a while…..you may be on to something. I really am no help but I will be on the lookout and report back if I learn anything.
I think you should try it and let us know! 😀

Hello @jlharsh, @heidimarie123, and the others who have responded to this gastroparesis discussion. Like @jlharsh, I have never been diagnosed with GP, however, I've had several surgeries of the upper digestive tract, which seem to have created the same motility symptoms as those who have been diagnosed with GP. Many of the posts I've read in these discussions have helped me.
The most important thing that I have learned is to avoid raw fruits and veggies and instead to eat canned or well-cooked produce items. While it does not solve all the GP-type symptoms, it has certainly relieved the abdominal pain that I had. The abdominal pain level used to be about 7 or 8 on a daily basis, and now just a 1 or 2 occasionally. I certainly do miss salads and other fresh produce, but the relief from abdominal pain makes it worth the sacrifice.

Hi there!
I am interested to see how this works - as having GP also means I risk diabetes since complex carbs are the easiest food for me to digest. I am always looking for easy things to digest that will not cause blood sugar spikes.
I will report back with my 'findings' (read: experimentation on myself, lol).
