I’m nit really sure what caused gastroparesis with my Grandsin. He lives with me and at 7 started vomiting everything he ate every night when he lay down for sleep every night for months. He had a procedure done by a surgeon called a pyloroplasty and a 360 degree Nissen fundoplication. He then had no symptoms at all for many years. Then he started vomiting terribly again and was told he needed a revision in his Nissen fundoplicatiin wrao again. The surgeon said wrao was slipped and did a revision in it which was successful and he had no symotoms at all for 4 years. His symotoms the returned terribly with vomiting terribly and very forcefully. In Aaugust 2024 we took him to the head of gastro de who then referred him to a surgeon that said he needed a revision in his 369 Nissen fundoplicatiin wrap, but this time he would do a 270 degree Nissen Fundoplicatiion wrap which is a half wrap instead of a 360 degree Nissen fundoplicatiin wrap and that after this my Grandson would be perfect. This surgery failed and my grandson is even worse now then before the surgery which is so very sad for him and us. He is home not able to eat with no hunger and inky eats a tiny bit kater at nught when he doesn’t feel Naseous. He wakes up every day feeling very sick tired and nauseous burping gagging etc. it’s a nightmare fir him and us to watch. He tried erythromycin and a scoop tigether. An hour later I took him to the ER forcefully violently vimiting which is now very hard to stop even on IVmeds for naseau. The compazine doesn’t work anymore and the last 2 times in ER they used zYorexa (olajnapine) is the generic if it which he got intramuscular because he couldn’t keep the oral down . Last time the hospital used Halo but was rough in him the next couple days as it was harsh on his body. I’m sorry I rambled on about his condition. He had a third surgery and wasn’t given a gastric emptying test until after his third surgery failed with the 270 degree Nissen fundoplicatiin half wrao revision he was given so I don’t know what caused his gastroparesis. His gastric emptying study did show a severe gastric emptying result . Now my Grandsin is just hanging in and we’re hoping to find something that works to help him feel better and be able to function without feeling so I’ll and having to go to the ER violently vomiting whenever he calls me. Thank you so very very much to anyone that read the book I just wrote about my grandson. Thank you also to the person that asked about what caused glhis gastroparesis and caring. You have no idea how much I appreciate your help and am praying for the best and for everyone to feel better quickly now 🙏

There is no true definitive conclusive test for gastroparesis. A nuclear stomach Emptying test is actually much more effective in showing the signs of gastroparesis. There are a few ways to develop this, the mail one being on opioids for longer durations. Reglan can be effective but I agreed it has some side effects. However, if the rewards are greater with reglan it can be worth the possible side effects. Are you taking any rx prn digestive enzymes like creon or zenpep, if lipase numbers are low.?
