Gastroparesis and Holidays

Hey my fellow #GPers and #caregivers! I haven’t been as active on this page and I wanted to share why.
I also share with you that I’m dealing with the acceptance of my disease, #gastroparesis, guilt, #medicaldebt, low self-esteem and much more.
I know this holiday season is often really hard with those with #GP. I wanted you to know I understand and am praying for all of you. I’m learning, it’s OK to not always be OK!! (Thanks to a very dear friend who reminds me whenever I’m down. 💚) Let the people who love you be there for you. There’s no perfect way to handle #gplife. We all stumble along the way. It’s how we learn. And, I’m learning as I go. I hope this helps you!

I also have Gastroparesis as a result of a medical malpractice. I understand your frustration because my condition is severe. What I did was to go to the Cleveland Clinic to get the POP procedure and I’ve had a great improvement (no vomits, sleeping well, now I fell hungry and I hear the movement of my stomach). What I know is the Botox is just temporary and you feel relief just for few days but if Botox works fine those few days. The POP procedure could be a good alternative for you. Regards and Blessings.
