I have had gastroparesis for 4 years. I got diagnosed in January of 2011. My primary doctor found out after I had to do a gastric emptying study, and I got admittedto the hospital for stomach pain that wouldn't go away. When I had left over steak in my stomach from the night before that is our haha moment. I was happy to finally get the right diagnosis after 2 years of not knowing what was wrong with me.
