Hey Kathy,

My Lindsay was recently diagnosed and she has had a Gastric Pacemaker implanted. She did not keep anything down for over 8 months, she finally was sent to see a doctor named Raul Rosenthal at the Cleveland Clinic in Weston, Florida. He implanted a Gastric pacemaker and her nausea and vomiting have stopped. Did they do a gastric emptying test on you? If you are in the early stages you could be a candidate for the pacemaker. He implants lapriscopic. Let me know if you need any more info.

My daughter is doing fantastic after the implant. The surgery recovery was a little rough, but it was so worth it.
