Hi Michelle, Welcome to Connect. We have several members talking about a damaged vagus nerve in the Digestive Health group (https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/digestive-gastrointestinal-problems/). Please meet @cummings3 @gorkii @citygirlannie @peck1944 and others. You may be interested in reading their stories in these discussions:

- mild gastroparesis with severe symptoms! https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/please-read-mild-gastroparesis-with-severe-symptoms/
Let me know if you'd like me to move this discussion to the Digestive Health group.

the vagus nerve seems to be a gut/brain connection. My daughter is waiting to be referred to a third neurologist as the two she has seen have no idea about treating it. We are also not certain if it was damaged during bariatric surgery. She is using CorSense to monitor her condition plus checking blood pressure. Although she has almost daily nausea we read that the problem causing slow motility may not be "in" the stomach but in the muscles surrounding the stomach. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Rose Marie
