At the time I was having problems that put me in the hospital several times over the summer. My doc put me on domperidone with each meal. I have been able to scale back my use of domperidone with no discomfort or nausea.

Its possible it may be medication related and I will bring that up with my doc. Back in december my pain meds were increased somewhat and the cymbalta was added to the gabapentin. Maybe it is related to that.

Hi Kreink,

I would try the Fibre for bulking as Mrs.D has suggested. I have had both bowel and bladder problems from meds. I am now on 2 different meds for reflux and experiencing bloating,fullness,breathlesness. I was on a beta blocker called metropropol (Sp?)

My god how that thing messed up my digestion. I thought it was gastroparesis for sure as I had so many of the symptoms. Turned out it was the Beta Blocker. I would have food & liquid go up and down up and down all day. It was so embarressing as people could here it. It was so noisy it was like a concert. I had really bad bloating and spasms in my esophagus. It was misery.

It may take a while to normalise if one of your meds is the culprit. Don't give up hope. The problem could go away as quick as it came. There was also a few other members on here who were posting about similar problems and both eventually resolved.
