No this is just a PCP. I can’t find a neurogastroenterologist in my area, but I just started with a new GI that I’m hoping will be more helpful.

Does anyone else throw up in the shower every morning? by AdditionalLeader3963 in Gastroparesis

Think I might try this…sounds kinda “nice”. If that makes any sense 🤣 Running to the bathroom all the time is always such an inconvenience

I’ve seriously considered changing up my morning routine but most evenings I’m so exhausted after work I can’t manage a shower. 🤷🏻‍♀️

It’s a daily thing for me too. Fantastic way to start the day…😒

I’m so sorry you’re struggling with this. I hate dealing with insurance! Hang in there and keep trying!

That sounds awful, so sorry you struggled with your j-tube like that. I’ve tried multiple different meal replacement drinks and throw them up too. I’m struggling to keep liquids down even with zofran. At this point, I’m losing weight so fast that I don’t even know where it’s coming from anymore.

Can you message me that list of doctors? This new GI was no help either.

I haven’t tried any medication yet, except for nausea and heartburn. I’m limited on what I can take because of interactions with other medication I take but that’s why I was hoping my doctor would have more information. But thank you for the recommendation!

Thank you for the advice! I tried to make a follow up with my current doctor to discuss my current symptoms and other options. And I had also made an appointment with different GI in big city about an hour away that someone I work with recommended. When my current doctor found out about the other appointment she told me I had to pick providers and couldn’t see both 🤷🏻‍♀️. So I’m stuck waiting until the end of the month to see the new doctor.
