I try to avoid it at all costs. Being TPN dependent and able to run fluids helps some, but don't let yourself become too dehydrated. If you're instinct says go, don't ignore it.

I can't really say, as I'm new, but I spent 3 days without food or water before going (which ended with my diagnosis). I went then mostly because the dehydration was causing my blood glucose to spike out of control. No amount of insulin got it down. That's super dangerous, so I went in. If you can, try sipping something sugary. It helps me stay hydrated when I can't eat. Water is known to be difficult for GP, according to my ONLY (but amazing) health team member who knows anything about it. Glucose--carbs--can be absorbed through the stomach, so not emptying doesn't matter, at least not nearly so much. Yes, it can be bad when paired with diabetes though. I don't get the usual spikes, even with regular soda, so I can usually work with it. A disturbing amount of my calories over the last two months or so (since dx) have come from Jamba Juice and Icee. But they sit well.

I Have Found That Once The Blocked Food is Finally Thrown Up…The Episode is Over. To Get The Vomiting over. I eat Any Form of Peppermint…It Helps With Bringing Up what Needs To Come Out…Also have Found Stomach Massage while In A Very Warm Shower lowers the Stress of The Attack

I Might Add That My Comments are not related To Diabetes…I Am Idiopathic…So Bear That In Mind when reading my suggestion
