Gastroparesis with severe symptoms!

I was just diagnosed with gastroparisis a few days ago. My symptoms include: chest pain/heaviness/tightness, shortness of breath, every scent causes a trigger (newer symptom) stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, off balance, fatigue, loss of appetite, diarrhea, constipation, bloating/gas, body aches, heartburn, lightheadedness, right side of neck and shoulder pain, and a feeling of choking. I have gone to many doctors (within 1 year and 8 months now). The breathing part is the most that’s bothering me. I’m extremely stressed, depressed, miserable, anxious, and scared. I don’t like these feelings, I have lost interest in most things in life. I don’t even wanna get out of bed in the morning. Does anyone have breathing problems with this?...I’m still figuring this out, my doctor thinks it’s acid reflux (chest problems). I sure could use some support. Thanks.

exactly the same about the chest and shortness of breath, ive seen sm doctors, i dont do anything anymore because of how i feel
have u figured out what it was ?
Are you still having symptoms? I have gastroparersis, was diagnosed 2 years ago and for the most part my symptoms are manageable but I experienced very bad shortness of breath at night when trying to fall asleep. I’ll be up until late until my body is just too tired and I finally fall asleep but sometimes I’ll take a gasX and that helps? I’d love to know if you experience anything like this. It’s debilitating, I’ve seen cardiologist and pulmonologist and they all say everything is fine

See an allergy/asthma doctor for some medicine to help with the breathing problems. Then, make an appointment at the Mayo Clinic. They are #1 in gastroenterology. You might also want to try Phillips Milk of Magnesia for the constipation. My doctor said I could take as much as I want, and I use 4 T every 2d or 3rd day.
