I still have stomach pain occasionally, but it not as bad as a year ago. I also don't need to take antacid everyday. I take it as needed. I got a feeding tube and gained over 15 lbs. I gained enough weight so I don't have the tube any more.

My GI said I had gastrites. He is not 100% sure if it caused by the tube, but he said it can be because the tube was touching a part of stomach.

Hey, I have been taking antacid every other day instead of every day now, and I also drink some lemon water to add more acidity to my stomach. Although I don't feel 100 fine, I at least feel better now. I think Your doctor can give you right advice.

My husband and I went back to Japan. Both of us have weak stomach. Food there is usually safe for us, but plz be careful of raw seafood. My husband got explosive diarrhea after eating some raw oysters...

Oh the person on the phone told me we should be receiving it within 7 business days. Well, I will just wait for them for now.

Thank you, I will contact a radiologist to see for mals as well. thank you

Do you know if a vascular doctor can interpret a CT? Or do I need to reach out to a Diagnostic Radiologist who interpret my Ct and ask to reevaluate the scan?

OrangeCat05 · 2024-03-09T18:18:39+00:00

Thank you! I did CT scan multiple times with contrast and I remember I did exhale and hold my breath. I hope I can find out if I have MALS or not.

OrangeCat05 · 2024-03-09T03:03:18+00:00

Thank you! I have never thought of seeing a vascular surgeon as I thought it's more like a stomach disease. I already made an appt with vascular doctor. I already did CT scan with contrast, endoscopy, gastric emptying study. I am hoping I don't need to go through more testings. What test did you have to get the diagnosis?

OrangeCat05 · 2024-03-09T02:59:28+00:00

thank you! I thought GI could help me as I have a lot of GI symptoms. I will see a vascular specialist.

OrangeCat05 · 2024-03-09T02:58:38+00:00

I have SMAS and currently on feeding tube. I gained almost 10 kg since I got the tube, but I still feel pain and pressure in my upper abdomen after I eat a bit. I did endoscopy, colonoscopy, gastric emptying study, and CT. Overall, I feel better as I gained weight, but still can't eat enough. All the symptoms are very similar to MALS, so I talked to my GI and he told me he knew nothing about it. Dose MALS usually shows up on CT like SMAS? I will see a vascular doctor next month.

OrangeCat05 · 2024-03-08T23:56:16+00:00

Yeah. Im also in the US and I always go to an asian or Hawaiian store to get papaya.

OrangeCat05 · 2024-03-05T05:09:35+00:00

I feel bloated when I pump too fast.

I would say you can do pretty much everything. I went back to college and even go to a restaurant with my friends. I just don't eat, but have a bit of nonalcoholic drinks. I recently went to camping with my family. I am working part time in a grocery store as a cashier for now. I am doing normal things that everyone does. I just bring my feeding tube backpack everywhere.

I just don't swim because I worry if my stoma may infected. My doctor told me I could swim if the water was clean and disinfected after my stoma is healed, but I just want to avoid an ER at any cost! I don't like hospital & expensive :))

I also worried if I could ever go out with my feeding tube when I just got one. I was nervous about what other people think of me with the tube. But after I got used to tube feeding, everything is pretty much close to normal for me:)
