Hi, I have my fourth GI motility specialist. Now I’m back on amitiza twice daily and erythromycin 3 times a day and trying 60 ml Philips milk of mag every other day but causes vomiting and I can’t sleep. I was to have a total colectomy but at that time my stomach tested fine with nuclear meal and test for small bowel was great. Ten months later I completely failed Smart Pill study where now I have severe gastroparesis and severe delay in small bowel. I’m not getting surgery unless push comes to shove. I think it will bring on an entire new set of problems, possibly worse than now. I’m 68. Until 3 years ago I was very active so much you couldn’t keep me still. Now I’m miserable. One day at a time. I’ve tried linzess and Motegrity and a combination and so many other drugs too.
