Hi, my name is mari101_2000. I'm here because I think online support is critical. I'm a 48-year-old mom of two. Brittany is 28 and is on the autism spectrum and has PTSD. My son, Tyler, is 24 and diagnosed with bipolar and ADHD. He is unmedicated by choice. He's been sentenced to three years for probation absconding. We don't have a relationship at the moment. I've been through a lot of trauma, I'm either MDD or Bipolar 2, and I don't know why they can't tell the two apart. I have CPTSD, depression, and anxiety. I also have a chronic illness.. I have very bad gastroparesis, and it's really affecting my life. I also have horrible arthritis, fibromyalgia, and back and hip pain. These are the things that I'm struggling with. Brittany had a baby that she'd worked very hard to bring forth. She had Everleigh, and she was a stunner. Five weeks later, she died of SIDS. So we are all grieving her. Also, we lost my mother to Alzheimer's about 6 months later.

Sorry, I just spilled my guts. Hope to make some connections!

Hi, my name is Katie57. I'm here because my husband has Gastroparesis and can't find a doctor to treat him. He had a GP specialist until two years ago and he left the GI practice, the GI practice didn't replace him. He saw a different doctor in the practice and was basically told there was nothing that could be done for him. I would like to learn what other GP sufferers do to get through each day. The poor guy is sick constantly. The only thing that helps somewhat is medical marijuana capsules. Zofran, Phenergan, Compazine don't help any more. It's been 12 years since diagnosis but two years with no help. Hoping to glean something, anything that would be helpful for him

Hi Hi, my name is Aslan777. I'm here because I care for my husband who has gastroparesis, anxiety, and ADD, along with Asperger‘s. I would like to have more ideas on how to make the food that to me basically has no nutritional value, but it’s the way he needs to eat. I get confused as to what is we meats, and how to get enough vegetables in since there are very few options. Thank you for your input.

Hi, my name is groovy63. I'm here because I feel like no one believes me. How i feel and that I'm sick. I was told I have gastroparesis about 2 years ago but I haven't seen the main dr for it yet because I can't drive and my husband has a bad back. The dr is 3 hours away. I tell myself that's way but I really don't think my husband believes I have it. He doesn't believe what drs say. Anyways last Friday I threw up and started feeling dizzy. My sugar went up really high and I haven't been able to get it down. I went to my family dr she thought maybe I had a flu or something but she did blood work and my white count was alitttle high and I was dehydrated. So she said to drink more water. So today I just really felt bad and I went to the er. My head was killing me, I thought I was going to throw up and I was dizzy. They did test and nothing showed up but my blood pressure was high. He gave me a pain shot it got rid of the headache but made my chest hurt. By the time I got home I felt the same way I did when I got there. Are these all signs of gastroparesis? I have so many other things work with me I don't know the difference between what's what. I have been sick for the past 35 years. I just feel like no one believes me when I tell them how I feel. They look at me like I'm crazy. Can someone tell me if any of this goes with gastroparesis or am I crazy. Thanks

I’ve got Gastroparesis, Lupus and Al sundry list of chronic illnesses. I’ve been in bed for 4 days now with what I believe is a gastrointestinal bug or could be a Gastroparesis flare. I am having horrible stomach pains and if I take my stomach medicine it gives me a migraine . I’m starving as I’ve had two packs of ritz crackers and 2 pieces of toast in 4 days. My hubby is trying but he’s basically playing video games to ignore my illnesses. I’m starting to feel depression kicking in. Just needed to vent.
