Default Gastroparesis and MS

I was diagnosed last year with gastroparesis and told it was a permanent condition. I'll have periods of time where I can eat almost normally, even eating nuts, raisins, and ice cream. I've even gained some weight in the last two months.

I'm wondering if your gastro symptoms come and go like others? I had a real bad bout last summer causing the weight loss, pain, discomfort, & nausea for days on end, but since January I have been eating normally. I have meds for it, but don't take them regularly, as I've been feeling pretty normal.

Since I'm really new to this fun ailment, if there's anyone out with gastric issues, I'd appreciate any input. Have you ever had a flare of gastroparesis during a flare of any other symptoms? If so, does IVSM have an impact?
