Spent the better part of last april in the hospital, and after exhaustive tests, treatments and poking it was decided that MS has affected my GI tract and I have gastroparesis (frozen stomach) so when I eat, my tummy nerves dont get the signal to empty and push food thru. It sits in my tummy for days on end. I have been thru all of the tests, and special MDs to finally get a real diagnosis about what is going on with my tummy, which I am assured happens alot in diabetic patients but rarely in MS patients.
Ok, onto my question. I am told to eat small easily digestable foods or to frequently go on juice fasts to keep my micronutrient levels very high. I find when I juice fast I feel so much better. probably because I am finally getting nutrition, but I cant stay on juice fasts forever, so I keep trying different foods.
I was pretty close to the makers diet, and I eat very small portions of meat if I do eat meat, because its so hard to digest. I need to eat tiny meals frequently which is such a bother, but I am looking for suggestions. I am allergic to mushrooms, and shell fish, so those are out. I am sick to peices of juice, altho its been my saving grace, and I want some food! It seems that whenever I try after two or three days I go right back into crisis. I am dropping too much weight now, and really need to boost the amount of food I can get in me.
Any ideas? help? suggestions? Anyone else have this issue with thier tummy? Im tired of my tummy hurting and then it not knowing what to do with food when it finally gets some.
