I'm not sure how long your stomach should take to empty - I would think it would vary based on how much food and the types of food (fat is the slowest to digest). My stomach emptying test also showed that mine was slow, but I don;t know to what degree, except as I said that I don't vomit after eating, so it's not so bad.

I have a lot of symptoms due to this situation including sudden fullness after eating a small amount, lots of nausea before or after eating, sour stomach, heartburn/reflux, immediate bloating and gas upon eating, and just a general feeling almost nothing sits well in my stomach. I've generally learned to ignore any communication from my stomach because I have to eat and my appetite is really fickle due to all these symptoms. But it's frustrating to have these symptoms pretty much all the time, in addition to lower digestive symptoms.

I didn't realize the vagus nerve is something you can feel in a massage. Of course, I never let anyone massage my abdomen because I hate any pressure on it. But I am interested to know more about what your practitioners tell you about this.
