@darlenemeeder ...just a little while ago Oct 28 5:30 Central ..I wrote of my experiences with gastroparesis..Can you look back and find that pile of suggestions..?

Did you ever have the stomach emptying test, where you eat the standard meal in a prescribed time and then they check you every hour tracing how that food goes through your body...

I do drink an Electrolyte liquid (like Pedilyte) to help control the diarrhea.. check the amount of essential salts and minerals in the drink.. get the max..
