Gastroparesis: Fighting for Change

Note: This is not an exhaustive list. There are many other possible causes of #Gastroparesis. Diabetes is the most common known cause of GP (most estimates around 30%; a recent study at more than 50% of cases – links below); however, many cases are labeled “idiopathic,” meaning there is no known or easily identifiable cause (most estimates at more than 50%). We celebrate the #GPChangemakers who seek the underlying causes of our illness, rather than simply treating the symptoms, and who understand that a diagnosis without a clear cause is difficult to accept.pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11988396/www.ccjm.org/content/91/6/373#CureGP

Gastroparesis: Fighting for Change

Though the Gastric Emptying Study is still considered the “gold standard” of diagnosis, there are issues and limitations associated with this test, as it is simply a snapshot of a moment in time. Test results can vary widely over time, and so, it is not uncommon, for example, for one test to show severe delay and another follow-up study to show mild delay or even normal emptying rates. Consuming the recommended standardized meal, tracking emptying rates for 4 hours (rather than the 90-minute or 2-hour tests offered by some facilities), testing for both a delay in solids and in liquids, and stopping all medications which could interfere with the results (as directed by your physician) can help to produce the most accurate emptying measures. Diagnosis can be difficult even under the best of circumstances. Some patients find they experience “flares,” or periods of severe symptoms, followed by relatively symptom-free days, and, so, the timing of doctor visits and testing might be a factor in obtaining an accurate diagnosis. And to complicate the situation further, symptom severity does not necessarily correlate with the rate of emptying, resulting in some patients with severely delayed emptying having only mild symptoms and others with minor delays in emptying experiencing quite severe symptoms. In addition, symptoms often overlap with or mimic other conditions (such as functional dyspepsia or IBS). Diagnosis should, then, be based on several considerations, including test results, patient symptoms and history, and the elimination of other possible symptom causes.We salute the #GPChangemakers who understand the guidelines, adhere to standard procedures, acknowledge that diagnosis is complex, and address patient concerns with sensitivity and compassion.#CureGP #Gastroparesis

Gastroparesis: Fighting for Change

There are variations in the symptoms and levels of severity of gastroparesis. Some experience only mild or limited symptoms, while others experience quite severe symptoms and resulting complications. In any case, a list of symptoms and complications cannot paint the full picture of the life-altering, often debilitating, and sometimes life-threatening nature of GP. We rely on our GP storytellers to share their struggles and more accurately portray the genuine patient experience.Many thanks to the #gpchangemakers who open up their lives and share the most intimate details of their hardships so that others may more fully understand the impact of #gastroparesis.#CureGP
