Gastroparesis or slow modility colon

I am a bit reluctant to mention the otc product suggested by a GI.
I do have scleroderma related gastroparesis. I had been doing the diet, etc. However, I was still getting the painful symptoms AND finding no relief until I involuntarily vomitted.
That meant that I would lose the calories I had ingested and would lose more and more weight, becoming malnourished. Did you know that one of the symptoms of being malnourished is: LOSS OF APPETITE.

@jerce I also have chronic gastritis (not h-pylori) and take 1,000 mg mastic gum at lunch and again at dinner. I also take digestive enzymes but my stomach is still swollen and sometimes I have to force myself to eat. i take 1 ginger pill at breakfast to help with the lazy stonach. What is the OTC supplement that helped you?
