Is anyone struggling with gastroparesis; slow stomach emptying?

Hi, I have gastroparesis. I was diagnosed in 2019 but I know I had it at least three years before. Mine is a gift from diabetes. I don't have the same issues you mention, except the slow digestion and incomplete digestion. Even when I take a senna tablet, it takes 3 days to actually affect me. It's really been frustrating. My sympathy to you. I have no words of wisdom, but wanted to let you know you are not alone.

@farmgrrl57 What treatments are you getting now or have you had? Do you follow a special diet? Have you had problems with diarrhea? I had a very serious problem with incomplete digestion that none of the doctors agree on. One says it was a serious drug reaction, and one says it is exocrine pancreatic insufficiency . And I think it could be another autoimmune disease, microscopic colitis. Took about a year to get a diagnosis. 😉
Do you think that you have things under control now?
