Suggest Treatment For Gastroparesis
Hey, I m 20, a female, I m 5 4 and approximately 120 pounds. I was diagnosed with Gastroparesis when i was 16, I m Hypoglycemic, and have peripheral neuropathy. (my gastroparesis is cause by damage to my vague nerve) the past few days I have been unable to pass stool, and when i need to go its just a white foam like substance.? Any suggestions as to what it may be, and the seriousness of it? I seem to get colitis quite often, could that be all it is? and if so how urgent is it that i have it checked out? ( i am not on any medications) Thanks in advance!

hi,
in my opinion you should increase fibres in your diet and you can take prokinetic drugs like domperidone,levosulphuride or itopride after consulting your doctor and also you can take isobgul, these will improve your bowel habits.
