What gastric problem is this?!


Question: My brother is a diabetic and he throws up everytime he eats something. He has lower back pain and complains about it shortly after complaining he throws up again. He constantly jerks clutching to his stomach and getting the hiccups. He has been to the doc and they did MRI's and they said that they haven't found anything except he has acid reflex. The vomitting has been happening for months now. Can someone help me find an answer to what's wrong with him?

Tell him to make an appointment with a gastrointeologist for a gastric emptying study. I would bet he has gastroparesis. I have had it for 6 years and the Drs. don't know why. It is more common in diabetics and I am not a diabetic, I also don't throw up which is very unusual. There are meds for it but they don't help me cause I am atypical. They also have a gastric pacemaker they can put in him if the vomiting is severe and the meds don't work. I would bet my bottom dollar on this and not gallbladder problems. Please get him to a gastrointerologist ASAP. After the gastric emptying study they will do an upper endoscopy (not the same day) and his bowels may quit working like mine did and may have to take laxatives the rest of his life depending on how bad he has this digestive disease as it is called. It takes my stomach 21 hours to empty. When I got it 6 years ago it was only taking 6-8 hours to empty. No one will treat me now, it's too far gone and there are no meds to help it at this point. I live on strained baby fruit, saltine crackers, bullion broth and juices. So get him to the doctor while there is still help available for him. I lost 70 pounds in 4 months and have not put it back on.

He may have gastroparesis. Is he overweight?

I am not an expert, but this could be??? gallbladder?????

take him to some good doctors abroad

i think he have a bad sickless.

sounds like acid reflux, is he taking medication for this?
May help.

I would go see another Dr. Something is up thats not right..

i think u are a diabetic too

Go to endocronologist. Sounds like serious gastro-diabetic problem. He cannot go on like that.

This doctor could not find the problem.

Did this doctor do an upper GI? Did he do an xray of the lower tract?

Get a second opinion from another doctor who will do more tests than just an MRI.

HI 2Unique

Look closely at the suggestions I make below (look at #4 especially), regardless of the health issue. If you do these steps below, you'll give the body time to heal the issue without having to digest meat. dairy, manmade chemicals, preservatives, etc.

Here is a list of important health topics people dont realize or take for granted and thus causes issues.

1. stress = most of it is self induced. Even thinking and actually talking about negative means you attact more negative energy. Visualize and "Feel" a healthy beautiful body (end result) and you'll have it before you know it.
Once the body breaks down from stress then its much easier to get sick or unhealthy for that matter.

Obviously exercise helps manages stress tremendously!

Remember what you focus on (negative or positive) is what you will attract in your life. This universal law is called "The Law of Attraction".

2. Lack of water. Drink a gallon of distilled water daily to hydrate the body and flush out the excess waste and toxins out of the blood.

3. Nutrition = this helps heal the body and will gives it energy to work on the internal issues. Mainly raw organic fruit and vegetables. If you only ate organic raw F & V for 7-10 days and drank distilled water you would see a change in your energy and be on your way to better health. Letting the body rest from digesting meats, dairy, and processed foods would do wonders for you.

4. clogged colon = Not eliminating the processed food and chemicals we eat every day will give anyone an illness and/or disease. If doctors we're actually taught this, our society would be much improved. DO a colon and liver cleanse to clear out excess waste and toxins in the blood. This will help heal any illness or disease.

Best of health to you
