Gastroparesis is a condition where the stomach takes longer than normal to empty its contents into the small intestine. This delay in gastric emptying can cause various symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, bloating, and feeling full quickly.
What We OfferWeight loss surgery can help improve gastroparesis symptoms for some individuals. The reduced stomach size and changes in the digestive system after surgery can lead to better gastric emptying and relieve the symptoms associated with gastroparesis.
No, weight loss surgery may not be suitable for everyone with gastroparesis. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional who specializes in both weight loss surgery and gastroparesis to determine the best treatment approach.
There are potential risks and complications associated with weight loss surgery in individuals with gastroparesis.
