Daryl and eddiemcm, thanks so much for the suggestions! I am very grateful!

I was diagnosed with gastroparesis based upon the scintigraphic measurement of gastric emptying test I was put through. I must admit I am surprised at the skepticism with which my post was met. Why would you assume I would pull a condition out of thin air?

I have upped my carbs and the spasms have subsided. I have also gained two pounds, but at least I have been able to sleep.

Tomorrow is another day an all that!
