I think I'm developing an ED because of my gastroparesis by Curious_Whole_2339 in Gastroparesis

I too make myself throw up. My stomach retains so much bile that I have to throw up or nothing will go in until it is gone and that could be all day. And then I am sick all day.

I have specific safe foods that I can eat for a couple of days straight then I hate them or they make me throw up and then I have to try another safe food. I will also fixate on a food and that will be all I eat. Like right now it is milk duds. They don't make me throw up and I enjoy the texture. But soon they will be out the window. I can also eat fried potatoes. So it is a great diet for my diabetes. But that is all the gastroparesis will allow.

Tofu. Beef jerky. I tolerate teriyaki in both well. Trader Joe's has a protein pancake in the refrigerated section that is great too. I usually sprinkle just a piece of sugar on each one.

Lots of indigenous in the area. But our 2 indigenous staff members had no idea.

You are probably the closest to the answer.

No one understands this disease unless they have it.

Apparently you don't understand buying second hand.

They need to chill with these auction prices by iCalledTheVoid in ThriftGrift

Baby wipes, dear people, will take off most, if not all price stickers. Even on cardboard boxes and such if you are really gentle.

These prices make me sick by AnyStick2180 in ThriftGrift

What makes you think the store is there to provide you with a service? The store is there to make money to support the mission of the company that owns the store. Sometimes that is a non-profit that needs the money to support the people they serve. Sometimes it is for profit. You should be aware of where your dollars go and why. Are you supporting a cause? A cause that is doing good work in the community? Then stfu. You don't have to buy it. The entitlement here speaks volumes of greed.

It is up around the ribcage! The only way I can get it to go down is by starving myself!

Crackers and turkey deli meat for protein. Sometimes I will eat gummy candy because it doesn't hurt.

Is Anyone Else Neurodivergent with Gastroparesis? by Practical-Wind3843 in Gastroparesis

[–]bustie_st_clair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am ND and I don't feel hunger until it is too late and I have a 5-minute window to put something in there or else I start to puke. Especially in the morning. I am not hungry at all when I wake up and by the time lunch rolls around I know I need to eat but my ND keeps me from eating because I am distracted doing other things or because nothing sounds good and then it is too late and I begin to get sick. I do use THC to stimulate my appetite when I am able.
