Did you have surgery related to the gastroparesis? Perhaps the neurostimulator implant surgery? Or something unrelated? You are the first person that actually answered my question! thank you for that.. How many have you had it and how far did it progress (for example where you able to eventually only take liquids etc etc ).

Also are you an idiopathic case or prior surgery or diabetic related?
Thanks

I hope you get some real answers. My daughter has gastroparesis as aftermath of treatment for chronic fatigue illness. Vagus nerve apparently damaged. She has good times and bad. Also has cyclic vomitting now on occasion, somehow related. She does not want surgery, but it would be good to know what procedures have really helped people. She is not diabetic either.

My surgery was done by a surgeon who specializes in Gastroparesis.
He did a surgery to open and clean out my pyloric valve.
It has been a painful recovery and am not recovered completely yet. It will be long but so worth it! Mine was far advanced and more than he had expected.
