When to Seek Treatment

The first step in caring for patients with gastroparesis is confirming the proper diagnosis. The symptoms, while usually milder, can be related to a variety of ailments so it’s important to rule out other potential causes before beginning treatment.

Warning signs of gastroparesis include:

  • Nausea and/or vomiting occurring several times a day
  • Nausea and/or vomiting episodes over 12 months or more
  • Weight loss over the past year
  • Excessive weight gain over the past year due to improper nutrition
  • Supplemental nutrition needed
  • Repeated hospitalizations
  • Inadequate relief of symptoms from medications
  • Diminished quality of life
