 Had an appointment with my gastroenterologist today and he’s thinking I have gastroparesis - basically my stomach doesn’t empty well. I have to go for a gastric emptying test.

He was glad to hear the Prilosec has improved my bloating and appetite. Since it’s not meant to be a long term med, once we get my symptoms under control he’ll be tapering me off it and we’ll manage it in other ways.

He was saying about eating smaller, light meals through out the day. Basically, I need to rebuild my childhood eating habits. Habits that I destroyed when I was in college.
