Today I went to my gastro doctor. He is trying a new med for me in hope that my stomach will work some. I have gastroparesis severe and nothing seems to be working now. I hope I will not have to go back on the IV meds for my stomach. I was taking them for three long years They stopped working so something else had to be used that is not working either, Zelnorm did not work either.

I talked to him about the IBS C/D and the only thing he coud offer me was Fibrocon taking that alot to help with the pain. Tried that years ago no help either.

For my tummy he wants to try a gastric paceer to stimulate my tummy to work. He told me that I was at the top of the list when he gets the approval from the FDA. I have kind of been the poster person for Gastricparesis for that hospital. I am in the computer to be called as soon as he has the green light on that procedure. I am praying that I will not have to wait too long.

The pain clinic appointment finally came through. I go there next week. I was in the ER over the weekend with so much pain I was crying. I was able to get some pain pills from a sympathetic doctor there. I hate IBS so much.

I appreciate everyone replying to me on this board. I will be getting the tea and using all of the other suggestions as well. I am so glad that I found this board.

You are all so cool!!!:)
