Yes, I was finally. . . diagnosed last year. I had a gastric emptying study and that's how they found it. I've been having pain in my left side for 10 years now. I prefer to watch what I eat than to take a lot of pills. Good Luck!

i have the same and have for years. i have changed my diet to more fiber, etc. and drink more water. exercise helps too. I tried all the prescriptions, but had bad side effects. You'll eventually learn what works best for you.
