Gastroparesis
What is Gastroparesis
Gastroparesis is a disorder in which the stomach cannot empty normally. The digestion of food is slower than usual. It is caused by an issue with muscles and nerves that control the emptying of the stomach. If nerves get hurt, your stomach muscles might not work right and food might move more slowly.
What Are The Symptoms Of Gastroparesis?
Possible gastroparesis symptoms include:
- Feelings of fullness right after eating
- Weight loss
- Appetite loss
- Nausea & Vomiting
- Heartburn
- Abdominal discomfort and bloating.
These symptoms might be moderate or severe and have a tendency to fluctuate.
What Causes Gastroparesis?
It’s not always apparent what causes gastroparesis, but vagus nerve that controls the stomach muscles can sometimes be to blame.
The vagus nerve sends signals to the “stomach muscles” to “contract” and drive food into the “small intestine”. In some situations, nerve can be damaged and cannot convey impulses to the stomach muscles normally. This could allow food to linger in the stomach longer, as opposed to moving into the small intestine for digestion.
The vagus nerve and its tributaries can be injured by the small intestine, stomach surgery, or by disorders such as diabetes.
How Is Gastroparesis Diagnosed?
The diagnosis of gastroparesis is based on a patient’s symptoms, medical history, medical tests, and physical examination. Your physician may also use special diagnostic tests to search for gastroparesis problems such as the use of SmartPill and a Four-hour solid gastric emptying study.
