Hi Linda,

 

Gastoparesis symptoms:  I feel very full after eating only a small amount of food - five minutes worth of eating I would say.  I stay full for quite some time (8-10 hours wihtout getting hungry) - so I have a limited appetite.  I try to eat at mealtime but then feel full quickly (likely becuase there is residual food in my stomach.  When I've had this, I take reglan before meals (which speeds up the motility in the GI).  It has helped me to be able to eat enough to maintain weight

 

Yeast - burning/pain in the stomach when eating (not cramping/nausea as if you are going to throw up but just burning like my stomach is on fire).  Often times I can only eat broth and crackers when it gets real bad - bland foods but not too much at once or the burning is too much.  Also, loss of appetite - which may just be more psychological because I know what it is going to feel like to eat.  Usually a month of diflucan pills every day will get rid of it.
