@hopeful33250 I was diagnosed with with gastroperesis 7 years ago. Have been on Domperidone since then. It is extremely helpful to me. Diagnosed with Lymphacytic colitis 2 years ago and diverticulosis with several flairs of diverticulitis. Most days are somewhat painful but able to ignore most of it. Nausea is seldom a problem but occasionally. Bad evenings have a lot of burping but Mylanta is my go to. No rhyme or reason to flairs. Had a bad flair of diarrhea from May to September once and another for 2 months when it was diverticulitis. Do not eat raw vegetables or fruits, no fried or greasy foods nor dairy other than Greek yogurt and hard cheeses. Sometimes have a hard time appreciating life but then remember all the people with a lot more problems than I have. Our son is fighting cancer right now so I want to stay tough and positive and be there for him and his family. Cannot give in to self pity. Things can always be worse. Many people are dealing with far worse problems so I am grateful for where I am today. To all who are dealing with with digestive problems I wish you the best and hope you find the way or ways to deal with all the stress you are living with.

Hello @retired7805, I appreciate you introducing yourself! I certainly appreciate your positive attitude. It is true that many people are dealing with far worse problems. This reminder helps me to keep problems in perspective.

Since you mentioned having been diagnosed with Lymphatic colitis, you might be interested in these Connect discussions:

- Lymphocytic Colitis: What is remission? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/what-is-remission/

- Your tips on how to live with Lymphocytic Colitis/Collagenous Colitis https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/lymphocitic-cholitis/

I am sorry to hear that your son is dealing with a cancer diagnosis. If you would like more support for his cancer diagnosis, Connect has many discussion groups dealing with different types of cancer. Is this a new diagnosis for your son?

I look forward to hearing from you again.
