A woman with stomach paralysis appealed to those taking Ozempic for weight loss. She isn't on the drug, but she says it's not worth the risk.
Yarnell explains that surgeries can help with symptom management, and while some gastroparesis cases resolve on their own, if you have it for a longer period, it's less likely to just go away.
"Gastroparesis is not life-threatening, but it has definitely been life-altering for me, as any chronic medical condition can be," Yarnell writes."It literally affects every aspect of my life; I never know when I will wake up feeling nauseous, so having to cancel plans is an unfortunate side effect of gastroparesis."
Yarnell describes difficulty with everyday eating, having to be mindful of what she consumes and limiting both fiber and fats. That means she has to eliminate veggies, most fruits, meat, and oily or fried foods. "I eat lots of small, bland meals and I am constantly monitoring my symptoms. If I don't eat enough, I get nauseous. If I eat too much, I get nauseous. If I eat something that actually tastes good, I will probably get nauseous," she shares."I am afraid to try a dish when I don't know exactly what's in it, since accidentally eating a food [that] isn't 'safe' can lead to extreme nausea that has me curled up in the fetal position for days.
