Anyone diagnosed with Gastroparesis?

I am type 2 diabetic. I got gastroparesis after a hiatal hernia repair. Of all the crazy things, I found a glass of red wine lowers my blood sugar and helps with the stomach pain from gastroparesis. I can't tolerate pain medication so I was so thankful to find out small glasses of red wine really help me.

I tried to provide a few links, but this site won’t allow it
I recommend you go to consumer lab , enter that and .com and looks at their article on melatonin , Also google NIH articles on gastroparesis and foods that can help and hormones like melatonin that can help, Also, ask google if any of your meds contribute to weakening the LES or cause Gastroparesis, PPI’s do both and I think are one of the worse drugs

Hi @janetv1957 , and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I will take your kind of crazy, if this what crazy is. It sounds like you found a perfect solution. Enjoy!

Do you notice consistency in how red wine affects you? Are you drinking it by itself?
