Hi, just a second to Mrs D - PN can definately affect your digestion - by damaging the nerves the control the normal contractions of your stomach and intestines.. although caused by nerve damage - handled by "motility specilialists" - GI doctors - and its necessary to find one who is familiar with the contition. There are tests to confirm, and also some meds that may help, in addition to diet changes. the degree a person can be affected varies greatly too - just like with PN.. I've got pretty severe PN and also the GI problems from it (called gastroparesis) - for me I have to live on liquid diet only and meds, but again, correct diagnosis and then different diet and treatments can help each person on an individual basis...

I hope you feel better....
