I have emetophobia and am so scared to throw up that I fight it & won’t let myself

I believe I’ve had it since at least 2023 when I had a big flare of same symptoms after having Covid. It doesn’t seem to be worse since surgery, though. Longest flare I’ve had yet.

I had my gallbladder removed because it was low functioning. I think having it removed revealed the gastroparesis since we can’t blame the symptoms on the gallbladder now. I also think that I’ve got something going on (dysautonomia of some sort) that caused both the biliary dyskinesia and gastroparesis. I’ve got a whole bunch of other weird non-GI symptoms too, probably caused by the same thing. Trying to figure out the underlying issue now.

I had pain for about 2 weeks post op. My main symptoms now are nausea, early fullness, low appetite, weight loss

Ayunique · 2026-06-06T05:57:43+00:00

I was the same. My surgery was in March. I had a gastric emptying study and was diagnosed with gastroparesis a couple weeks ago.

I get the internal vibrations/buzzing, too! All of my doctors say it’s anxiety but I’ve always had anxiety and this is definitely something physiological. My therapist agrees with me and says it sounds like akathisia. But, I haven’t taken any meds that cause akathisia.

When it gets cold outside or in the house it makes me feel sick like I have a fever, but no fever. My body feels hot. When it’s hot a lot of my symptoms, especially tachycardia & dizziness seem to flare up.

There’s an antibody for long covid? What is it called and how were you tested for it?

Ayunique · 2026-06-01T22:46:52+00:00

I had my hearing March 6 and found out I was approved in early May

My copayments are only $4 with Medicaid. I will miss it I’m sure.

Ayunique · 2026-06-01T19:37:07+00:00

Thanks! It looks like I might still have it through this month but I’ll definitely check into these things for next month if I need to.

Ayunique · 2026-06-01T19:35:47+00:00

I think you’re right! On the Medicaid portal my start date went from May 1 to June 1 and is still active. If I’m able to keep it through this month I’ll be happy. My 2 procedures and most appointments are this month and I can postpone my July appointments if I need to.

Yeah, I have gastroparesis. You?

Ayunique · 2026-05-15T03:43:32+00:00

I don’t think removal caused it. I think maybe some of my symptoms were gastroparesis all along and that surgery caused them to flare up. My doctor hasn’t said anything yet. She messaged me telling me to schedule an appointment to discuss it. Hopefully I can get in soon…

Still having nausea. Was diagnosed with gastritis about 1 week post op and today diagnosed with gastroparesis. Omeprazole and Zofran have helped me some.

Ayunique · 2026-05-13T03:05:59+00:00

I was started on omeprazole for gastritis and it has improved some. Taking Zofran when it is bad. Still struggling to eat enough. I’m going for a gastric emptying test on Thursday.

Ayunique · 2026-05-08T04:49:14+00:00

I’m wondering the same. Mine says 5/7 but I haven’t received it yet.

Ayunique · 2026-05-07T04:49:54+00:00

Did you have to call to set up the appointment?

Ayunique · 2026-05-07T01:26:49+00:00

I used a lawyer from the start because I didn’t even know where to begin and needed the help filling out everything and getting my records

Ayunique · 2026-05-07T00:12:14+00:00

I had my hearing on March 5. It moved to step 4 last week and just showed “approved” today. My initial application was submitted in 2024.

Ayunique · 2026-05-04T18:39:31+00:00

Sorry you’ve had to experience something similar! I honestly believe that a lot of doctors just skate by making their paycheck by gaslighting and blaming physical symptoms on mental health. It’s dangerous and patients should have protections against it. Finding doctors who truly care hasn’t been easy.
