Hi Beverly,
You need to do some homework on this condition. First it can be related to diabetes, hopefully your docs have checked out all the reasons why you may have this. Bad news is they may be correct in that it may not be fixable – especially if the vagus nerve has been damaged. It is managable though in most instances by eating very small meals more frequently- stay away from high fat foods and unfortunately high fiber foods, raw vegetables – things that can normally be harder to digest. You may want to puree your food for a while – get a VitaMix – so that you can get some nutrients back into you and then move onto very small frequent meals. Try soft foods first. Take a good enzyme formula with all the foods you eat. Like the DigestMore Ultra from Renew Life.
Get a liquid multivitamin formula, get some protein shakes – things like this to get more nutrients.
I know this may not be what you want to hear but your docs need to make sure they have looked at all the reasons why this may have happened so as not to miss an underlying condition.
