@crunchyoddball I am currently existing on soup, applesauce, baby food, juice, pudding ect. It’s only made a 7% difference and I feel like all my nutrients are missing. I hate it. Gastroparesis sucks sometimes.

it absolutely does. I'm sorry you are struggling. I finally convinced my gp to see up with a dietician

Find a PT that is very familiar with EDS and will listen to you and your body.

I am also trying to find balance with EDS and gastroparesis among other things. It’s not looking good though. With how its progressing I would be very surprised if I went back to school in the fall without a feeding tube of some kind.

I take entocourt and stick to a gastroparesis diet. It sucks, but it makes a huge difference
