Struggling with Gastro Symptoms: Need Advice

I'm really struggling with Gastro symptoms recently. Everytime I eat anything I get really painful stomach cramps, nausea and bloating and I'm also really fatigued. I can barely eat anything without wanting to throw up and I'm eating really small portions of food and mostly liquid and I don't know what to do.

      Domperidone sounds a little scary to me, it's banned in the U.S. due to cardiac risks. I would see if they would prescribe something else that you could take regularly. Ondansetron is another one that has been beneficial to me. I hate to say it, but I think meds are the only thing that can pull us out of a bad phase. I do know of some people that have had success with a low FODMAP diet, though.

      Do you take any medications for nausea? I have been on Nortriptyline for years for mine, but I recently went through a very bad bout. My doctor upped my dosage and it really helped when it seemed like nothing else did. I hope you are able to feel better soon.

        @Ginsomnia I've got Domperidone but my Dr won't precribe a lot so I have to be careful with how much I take

One possibility could be gastritis, which is an inflammation of the stomach lining that can cause nausea and pain when eating. Another possibility is gastroparesis, a condition where the stomach takes longer to empty its contents, leading to similar symptoms. It's important to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment options. Some people have found relief by taking probiotics or getting a gastric emptying study done.
