@Evvie Good Afternoon; howya feeling?
@Gramdma2011 I’m workin on bouncin back lol my guts quit working again over the weekend so the last couple of days have been a festival of not digesting food which is disgusting. It’s crazy to talk to my dr about it Bc their answer is keep eating small meals and I’m like do you not understand that nothing is moving? How does piling on help?
I need something carbonated I think.
Sorry if that’s tmi lol it’s reality over here.
@Evvie No, I can handle it; used to work in a nursing home; could talk body functions while standing there eating & looking at poop. Do you have Chrohn's as well?? Didn't know anything about it until my S-I-L & Granddaughter was diagnosed. Your symptoms sound similar to what he & his daughter go through
@Gramdma2011 not chrohns. I have non- diabetic gastroparesis. Basically the opioids made me so sick I was put on PPIs for YEARS & it killed my proton pumps/ability to produce Hydrochloric acid. So sometimes my stomach just stops working entirely & food sits there & rots. If I can’t get my guts working I will probably end up with a hospital stay that involves a tube down my throat pumping black sludge out of my stomach. Worst part is TASTING the rotting food at the back of my throat. Fun times. 🙄
@Evvie Sorry it's got you feeling so bad! Hoping you find some kind of relief very soon! I'm 🙏 You won't need a hospital stay!
@Gramdma2011 Hoping these probiotics & some carbonated water will help. If I’m not better by tomorrow I’m going to have to make myself puke I think. This is not the week for these shenanigans
@Evvie If you were where I am, my Dr's listen. They ask questions & go by what the patient tells them. They base care on any concerns we have + their care plans. The patient is involved in care; if something's not right, they do all they can to remedy, be it meds, PT, or just fears about any care. Before back surgery I had options explained. I was fearful & unsure. My PA sat me down & told me "I'm gonna talk to you like you're my Mama", and did. We had a good plan when I left; was appreciated
@Gramdma2011 I would love to have medical care like that. I’ve dealt with a parade of ego driven Drs who are more about $ & what the drug companies/work comp tells them than what is best for the patient.
Just w-in last few months I’ve had to freak out on my med team bc in trying to relate these gastroparesis issues w/my gp she tried to put that I’m ANOREXIC into my med records. Nothing could be further from the truth & Drs are people too. They are judgmental as hell so info MUST be correct.
@Gramdma2011 I’ll be making an appt next week & getting anew go doc referral. Really feel tht an Ayurvedic dr would be my best bet with this but there are none anywhere close so hoping I get someone who is at least open minded (Drs don’t like me. They call me an ‘educated patient’ 🤦🏻♀️)
