MCTD with gastroparesis and constipation

I have suffered with gastroparesis, heartburn, constipation and bowel leakage since I was diagnosed with MCTD 14 years ago. I have been to a gastroenterologist, had endoscopy and colonoscopy, CT scans and tried biofeed back with a Women’s OT. The heartburn is managed with daily medication but the bowel regime is just not helping. Any suggestions?

@1950 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect.

14 years is a long time and it's important that you find ways to better manage your symptoms.

You will notice that I added your question to a previous discussion.

I did this so you could connect with members like @dsstevens @dsstevens @fourof5zs @pdilly @picowgirl @rossjt @tazz61@helenfrances @annieoh that have already discussed this topic in the past.

I am wondering if you have ever considered acupuncture or yoga?
