I have struggled with digestive problems forever. I have had several colonoscopies and endoscopy’s. Always negative for polyps but I was diagnosed with IBS. I still have problems that gone undiagnosed. I was just doing some research and believe I have come across my problem? Undiagnos gastroparesis?
Can anyone enlighten me on this mystery?

ONLY way to get a firm diagnosis of this is a gastric emptying study.
what are your symptoms?

Symptoms can vary from person to person but can include a full feeling after a small amount of food to nausea and vomiting to trouble swallowing as well as constipation or diarrhea, among other things. It took me several ER trips before somebody had sense enough to admit me for failure to thrive and ordered X-rays, a CT scan, an MRI, a gastric emptying study, and an endoscopy and colonoscopy. I went on a special gastric diet with low fiber and small meals, gradually increasing intake and becoming more comfortable after a year. Hope you can find a doc willing to listen to your concerns and follow up appropriately and/or refer you to a GI doctor. Best of luck in finding a diagnosis so you can better manage whatever is going on.
