Dear Jerry,

You would be amazed how many people suffer just like you. I am the owner of a support group for patients with gastroparesis, and you could just plug your name into some of the bios and it would be the same as yours.

The dietary suggestions for patients with gastroparesis are low fat/low-no fiber. The fiber you are introducing into your system is part of the problem. Since fiber is harder to digest, it just wants to sit there causing you even more nausea or you throw up.

I have just about ANYTHING you can think of in relation to gastroparesis in one place. I have areas for tests/procedures, physicians (motility doctors), medications, GP diet information, links to just about every GP article you can think of, etc. It's one stop shopping for GP info.

I have suffered with gastroparesis for nearly 4 years, and I'm on tube feedings into my small intestine and IV therapy/medications through a central line. I have an extremely severe case. I'm not the "norm". The last time food stayed down was June 30, 2000.

If you are interested in checking out the site http://b7.ezboard.com/bbellybusters You have to apply, but all that apply are accepted without questions. I figure if people have found the way to my site, they must be really sick!!!

The funny thing about all of this is a administrator for the BellyBusters site came here looking for recipe ideas that would take little change to make them GP friendly. In the process of looking for the recipes, she found all of you suffering with gastroparesis and no real answers.

Look forward to getting to know you (we have other male members too).

Bethellen

PS: What doctor do you see for the gastroparesis? The only motility doctor I can think of off the top of my head that treats GP patients is Dr. Tougas. You can get more information about help in Canada by contacting GPDA which is headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, Canada
