hi all

my dr wants me to have a gastric emptying test since i'm still having a lot of nausea and vomitting despite every med in the book and a good diet. the gallbladder did have some density, but no stones. so she thinks the stomach problem is ibs related. (any suggestion if you deal with this is appreciated)

any way, i'm a bit unsure of the test since i don't know much about it. if you've had it could you please let me know what to expect as far as issues you had. for example the hidascan i had was bad for the 2 hours on the curved table.. ughhh...

another thing i keep thinking of is that i went through a bad phase where i threw up everyday, sometimes all day. i was under a ton of stress. right after it got under control i immediately developed ibs. kind of like all the bad stuff went south. so going through this again with active ibs makes me think "oh what's coming my way this time" or "hmm maybe it will all disappear after this phase" (yeah as if i were THAT lucky). so anyone who can relate or provide a hyptohesis on what's going on i'd love to hear from you.

thanks for listening and i hope i've made some sense.
