Re: I might be getting confused!       04/26/05 09:38 AM Edit Reply Quote WendySmiling Reged: 04/23/05 Posts: 73 Loc: Illinois Gastroparesis which is referred to as paralyzed stomach causes slowed transit time. It's basically the same as having IBS-D, but in your stomach. When you have IBS-D your intestinal emptying is delayed and you end up with food sitting in there because it takes so long to get anything to come out. It ferments in there and causes all the problems. Gastroparesis is the same thing. The muscles in your stomach don't contract and hydrochloric is usually absent so you don't digest food easily (or not at all). So it just sits there. If it sits long enough and you continue eating you get to the point where you can't eat at all because you are too full. You never know when your stomach will empty. If the food stays in there too long, or if you eat something that's a GP trigger you get sick (like morning sickness or stomach flu) and vomit. It's a weird disease. I hope this made some sense.
