Do gastroparesis symptoms slowly creep up on everyone?

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.

have your symptoms improved since you had this done - or its too soon to tell? you had the pyloric valve "cut" - that is what they do - its called a pylorotomy - so it lets food out the stomach faster.

I have seen 5 different GI specialists over the years. May I ask who did your surgery? I have often considered this an option, but not one of the many GI specialists I have seen has recommended this. They keep telling me to stay on a GP diet as if I haven't been. UGH.
Hope you recover completely and rapidly!
