Hi Jason:

Although my digestion was always slow, before I started taking HCl supplements, I can't take those right now. So I have intense gastroparesis. However, I also have the dientamoeba fragilis parasite, which challenges my digestion, and the h. pylori bacteria, which makes my stomach hurt when I stretch it with more than tiny amounts of food. Nevertheless, I realize gastroparesis is symptom, like 'ibs', not a permanent condition or 'disease'. Tonight I'll begin taking alinia for the d-frag critters. I've taken mastic gum for h. pylori for 3 days and no longer have burning pain after eating. Hopefully eliminating d-frag and h. pylori will improve my digestion. (I was much better before those 2 bugs.)

I suspect your gastroparesis will subside after you resolve any gastrointestinal problems which slow your digestion. Have you have follow up stool tests after treating parasites? Maybe you need digestive supplements. Have you ever been tested for hypochloridia?

The first thing you should do is contact your doctor and ask for testing. There are tests to find out if this is the case. You would swallow a solution, make sure to tell them it needs to be gluten free, then they do x-rays to see how long it takes the solution to pass through. If gastroparesis is present you doctor will advise you from there.

My GI doctor thinks I might have a touch of this. However there really is no treatment for it. They use Reglan which I reacted badly too before, so he said it wouldn't really give us much to do. I a hoping as my stomach heals this will get better as well, if it is a problem.

Can the problem really be low stomach acid? i was taking Biogest for 2 yrs with no problems now i cant tolerate it at all. is this maybe why i keep getting parasites? How am i supposed to increase stomach acid, improve my digestion & eliminate parasites if the supplements make me ill?

Hi Jason:

I've read that if your stomach lining is really thin, esp. after damage from h. pylori or other gut bugs, you may not be able to tolerate HCl supplements. I previously tolerated straight HCl capsules very well UNTIL I got an H. Pylori infection, which damaged my stomach. Now I can't tolerate any HCl capsules. BTW Biogest doesn't have much HCl, although it includes other digestive enzymes.

      Nausea

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight. My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet. I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now. He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs. It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc. It's literally neurological inflammation. Not to be taken lightly here. We...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-F...

      Nausea

      Hi all I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also]. BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering...

I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you
