Yes, thank you. I think I have been having gastroparesis symptoms for while. I have bad episodes of diarrhea followed by long periods of nothing. I find a good cup of coffee gets things moving during the dry periods. All my life I have battled diarrhea and even was using ten or more Imodium a day. Then I started having periods were I was vomiting bile or it was going through as diarrhea. That was when I realized my gall bladder was no longer functioning. I had a cholecystectomy in 2009 and my vomiting improved but not the bile diarrhea. I then started on Welchol, a old cholesterol med, to control the bile diarrhea. I no longer need it at this time because things have slowed down. I don’t know what is due to my EDS and what is due to gall bladder problems. Plumbing issues is something I have dealt with since I was a kid.
