are you really a fan of orv if you haven’t dedicated all of your time during a certain (ongoing) period of your life to desperately trying to keep one person alive as their sole/primary support materially/financially, socially, mentally, and emotionally, all from a distance with your only contact being digital
trying to convince them that the world failed them and it’s not their fault, that you want them alive, that good things can happen to them, and wondering if they really know how powerful and how powerless you are, if they know to blame you when they should, if they know that just because you’ll never be able to do enough doesn’t mean they deserve to suffer like this.
knowing that you are in a position of power over them, telling them the story of what this world deems they should be given, and you can’t do it right by them, but no matter what, you want with your whole being for their story to continue another day.
wanting to tell them that reading their story has saved you, and you’re so sorry for when you’re unable to do anything for them but read it
btw their venmo is Webwil1240 and their cashapp is $Daunderdogg and their gofundme is https://gofund.me/bed23894 and she’s dying without money for her medications yes this is about me please help us ✨

I got my gastric emptying scan results back by the way. My stomach is still delayed. But only by a little bit now. But like.. it looks a lot better just by the percentages.
I have to talk to my doctor abt what this means cuz I only have the raw numbers but like. I'm gonna be honest I was hoping to be cured because I've been feeling a lot better, but i'm not.
But it is a lot better, so.
#the gastric emptying scan is to test for gastroparesis (my chronic illness)#which i developed abt 3 yrs ago#gastroparesis is a paresis (partial paralysis) of the stomach !#🐇 rambles

Well that article has made me so glad that I was taken off Ozempic because it wasn’t really effective for me anymore and the doctor put me on Mounjaro instead which has been super effective for me which made the shortage which lasted for months really painful.
You were using it for diabetes then I'll wager, and ya that's kinda spooky wondering how paralyzed stomach even works but the mental image of what it entails is the reverse of fun so hopefully not that bad.
Gotta live on nutrient shakes for the rest of your life.
Hopefully not tho
Edit: just did a quick look, it's not all that bad or doesn't have to be at least.
Gastroparesis (gastro- from Ancient Greek γαστήρ – gaster, "stomach"; and -paresis, πάρεσις – "partial paralysis"), also called delayed gastric emptying, is a medical disorder consisting of weak muscular contractions (peristalsis) of the stomach, resulting in food and liquid remaining in the stomach for a prolonged period of time. Stomach contents thus exit more slowly into the duodenum of the digestive tract. This can result in irregular absorption of nutrients, inadequate nutrition, and poor glycemic control.
Still no fun, but you don't need predigested food at least

Again cause you’re fuckin deaf
[will talk seriously 2 min cause some things I see around makes me sick.]
I am a nurse, I am currently working in the hospital in a neurology rehabilitation unit. We have two post-covid patients, who have been hospitalized since the beginning of March.
.One is a little old, around his 60s (yes, I know), the other in his 40s. They were both very fit. One has a small medical history (hypertension), and the other has none.
.They both developed the 1st symptoms in the month of March, and as often, the virus seemed to give chaotic "spurts" at the beginning (i.e 3 stays spaced a few days apart in the emergency department each); then it was the cytokine frenzy with temperatures exceeding 41°C (105F) for few days, which is as everyone knows, very dangerous (the organs short-circuit, literally.)
.Then they had to end up being stabilized by the healthcare team.
As gifts from the covid + intensive-care-unit stay, they have won :
- the loss of a large part of their lung capacity (about 2/3) and very poor lungs. - some neurological damage that we do not yet understand - various disabling paralysis (apraxia, ataxia, tetra-paresis) - tachycardia - a huge loss in blood oxygenation.
They are men-machines-cables, now : - They only survive with a tracheotomy. (they spit out their throats) - a naso-gastric tube. (feed through a pipe that passes through the nose to attain the stomach.) - a urinary catheter. - more pipes with oxygen to just breathe. - more catheters with water and medics, ...
They are no longer able to do anything on their own : eat, drink, sleep, breathe, piss, dance, fuck.
So : the next Illuminati-moron who tells me that it does not exist, I’ll invite him to come w/ me to the hospital.

uughhhh i am so... fed up?
for the past 3-4 weeks i’ve been trying to up my food intake and number-wise everything looks good according my dietician.
however, when i eat i am constantly full and bloated and nauseous. after finishing a small meal i feel like i just ate thanksgiving dinner. and that feeling doesn’t go away for like 3-4 hours. the only reason i was sorta hungry for dinner tonight is that i walked 2mi and waited like 30 minutes after getting back
i go like 5 hours without eating which i’m not necessarily supposed to do but is like, fine, and i’m still full. i hate it
my dietician said at our second appointment that i might have gastric paresis and i think she’s right, i’m just wondering if it will ever go away!
this whole spell of bad GI stuff was triggered after i came back from florida. i’m not sure why or how or anything but it’s been the worst 2 months, coupled with a bad POTS flare, and my chronic back pain flaring up so bad that i ended up going to the ER. and that was a few weeks ago and it’s getting really bad again.
why must god nerf me in this way
#health //#GI issues //#food cw#really tho i am so frustrated with this#i don't know if i should ask for a referral to a GI specialist or if i should give it some more time#.txt

“Have you tried probiotics?”
So I had to make a quick stop at my pharmacy today and while I’m waiting the oh-so-helpfully-friendly cashier finds out I have gastric issues.
She immediately asks the much dreaded question: HAVE YOU TRIED PROBIOTICS?!
This is how I want to respond: NO. I have never had a frozen yoghurt, I’ve never heard of Jamie Lee Curtis, I have not seen a television, heard a radio, or had access to the internet since I contracted severe gastroparesis I was an infant. I went through 7 doctors and GI specialists from 18 mos. to 13 years, and of course none of THEM suggested it, because what do they know? They’re just doctors. Particularly the one who discovered gastro-paresis and invented the gastric pacemaker. Besides, obviously I haven’t tried it, because I’m stupid, and if I was a smart person I would be perfectly able bodied... like you. Because you’re smart. You listen to celebrities. Go steam your Vagina, Brenda.
But what I did say was: my stomach produces TOO MANY probiotics.
Because I was sick, tired, and in a hurry. Somebody send me a T-shirt that says YES I HAVE TRIED PROBIOTICS, BRENDA

Gastric electrical stimulation (GES), also referred to as gastric pacing is performed using an implantable device designed to treat chronic drug-refractory nausea and vomiting secondary to gastro paresis of diabetic, idiopathic, or post-surgical ethology. Gastric electrical stimulation has also been investigated as a treatment of obesity too. The device may be referred to as a gastric pacemaker. Gastric electrical stimulation has been investigated as a treatment of obesity as a technique to increase a feeling of satiety with subsequent reduced food intake and weight loss. The exact mechanisms resulting in changes in eating behaviour are uncertain but may be related to neuron-hormonal modulation and/or stomach muscle stimulation. Gastric electrical stimulation ameliorated symptoms, returned patients to normal oral nutritional intake, increased body mass index, improved gastric emptying rates, and is an alternative to gastrostomy in patients with end-stage gastric disease.

Raven: Gastroparesis (GP) (gastro- from Ancient Greek γαστήρ gaster, "stomach" and πάρεσις -paresis, "partial paralysis"), also called delayed gastric emptying, is a medical condition consisting of a paresis (partial paralysis) of the stomach, resulting in food remaining in the stomach for an abnormally long time. Normally, the stomach contracts to move food down into the small intestine for additional digestion. The vagus nerve controls these contractions. Gastroparesis may occur when the vagus nerve is damaged and the muscles of the stomach and intestines do not properly function. Food then moves slowly or stops moving through the digestive tract.

Calling on all non-Black ppl & abled ppl to contribute funds & share this aid request for my dear friends Liv & Webb!
We urgently need money for electricity & water, otherwise Liv may be killed on the streets by cold, life-threatening infections (especially COVID), and police/white supremacist violence.

what to know about this emergency situation:
--🌹🥀🩸--
Liv & Webb NEED their own secure housing to keep Liv safe from infection, especially covid.
She’s constantly bleeding, with an open stomach wound, has frequent seizures & even heart attacks, & has been only repeatedly abused by hospitals who, for example, coerced & manipulated her into signing a DNR.
Medical abuse & neglect has worsened her condition to unimaginable extents, even though treatment can significantly help her if only they could have enough money.
Webb always watches over her, tends to her body, keeps surfaces sanitized, protects her from abuse, desperately brings her back when she stops breathing.
Her teeth have broken apart and fallen out because she’s always throwing up & doesn’t have enough food to eat.
Liv worked extremely hard to graduate college with a degree in cybersecurity, but this cruel world has forced her to give up on her career dream.
Liv and Webb have been in love together for many years and would do & have done anything and everything for each other.
Webb has been physically disabled by a car crashing into him and by more medical abuse on top of that.
(Months ago, they forced him to walk 12 miles daily to physical therapy in excruciating heat with a fractured neck & back & everything because he didn’t have a working car nor money to get there using rideshare, and if he didn’t show up every day they wouldn’t pay his settlement for the car crash… even though they clearly knew it was only making his condition worse. Deeply evil).
Even in his physical condition, Webb has worked extremely hard to make money for Liv, but employers exploit his labor & cheat him of fair payment for his work because they know he can’t do much to retaliate.
Liv and Webb care wonderfully for their multiple beloved pets with their extremely limited resources, their puppy Blue loves and protects Liv.
Liv & Webb’s families are horrifically abusive and cruel and have left them to die, gloating to them that they’ll throw a party after Liv dies, sending the most horrible abusive messages to Liv.
One abusive family member forces them to pay full rent & utilities for a home that he frequently kicks them out of.
They can’t stay when he’s there - previously, he has brought friends to rape and beat Liv, he has purposely used up all of their living supplies, set the temperature to flip between extremes & blasted loud audio just to torture them, he has poisoned their beloved pets.
It’s extremely dangerous for Liv and Webb to stay outside: even when they have a car, they’re constantly chased away and harassed and threatened by strangers because they’re Black and poor and disabled. They’ve barely been eating anything at all.
Liv and Webb have been crowdfunding online for a long time (years!!) and received immense floods of harassment.
Liv and Webb need community support, money to secure their housing every month, money for their car, money for food and basic hygienic needs.
Liv and Webb are extremely important to me. They show me every day that people with illnesses and disabilities (like me) deserve unconditional love and care and support, that it’s possible for two people to love each other so dedicatedly that they weather & survive insurmountable obstacles & constant hatred from the world around them, no matter what, for years, even as their living conditions permanently alter their bodies and souls.
We need to support Liv & Webb so that they can continue living and caring for each other in this horrible world.

Why doctors suggest no food or drinks before surgery ?
If you have been advised to undergo any kind of surgery, you will in most cases be told not to eat for at least 8-12 hours prior to the procedure. Depending on the type of surgery, you may be allowed to consume a small amount of water. While fasting may seem like an unnecessary bother to you, it’s extremely important and can affect the outcome of the surgery. The consumption of food prior to surgery can increase the risk of various complications, which is why patients are instructed against the consumption of any food or fluid prior to surgery. Some of the reasons for this requirement are as follows: Decrease the possibility of getting infections Abrupt intake of food increases the risk of getting stomach and intestinal infection in those patients who undergo gastrointestinal surgery. This may occur because the food contents in the stomach and intestine interfere with the ongoing surgical procedure and thus complicates it, resulting in gut infection. Reduces the risk during anesthesia When physicians inject anesthesia, the person’s bodily reflexes temporarily stop and the body attains a ‘sleep mode’. In that condition, swallowing becomes unfeasible. Moreover, the body also loses its gasopharyngeal reflex (protective reflex to stop the backflow of food from the stomach to the throat) under the influence of anesthesia. In that state, the risk of backflow of food substances (from the stomach to the esophagus) becomes considerably high. Additionally, while inhaling, the food content that is regurgitated may also spill into your lungs (due to the loss of protective gag reflex) via the air passage. These food substances may effectively block the flow of air to the lungs leading to complications like pulmonary aspiration. This situation may even put some patients at a risk of pneumonia. An empty stomach significantly decreases the risk of pulmonary aspiration and thus pneumonia. Reduces the risk of acidity In some patients who suffer from problems like GERD (Gastroesophageal reflux disorder) or gastric paresis (paralysis of the stomach; mostly occurs in diabetic patients), the rule of keeping an overnight fast should strictly be followed prior to the surgery. A heavy meal before surgery may cause acidity in these patients which leads to vomiting as well. Such patients are usually advised to follow a fast for a longer period for their own safety. Although in recent years the fasting guidelines have been modified, most of patients are still advised to follow an overnight fasting procedure. However, it is always reasonable to talk to your doctor about your fasting requirements. In some cases, doctors may even advise patients to maintain a fast for more than 12 hours. The duration depends on the health status of the patient and the type of surgery.

3 Effective Ways To Get Rid Of Gastroparesis Naturally
New Post has been published on http://www.healthgoesfemale.com/3-effective-ways-to-get-rid-of-gastroparesis-naturally/
3 Effective Ways To Get Rid Of Gastroparesis Naturally
We normally experience fullness after a heavy meal, but imagine having that constant dull feeling of satiety and bloating even on an empty stomach or after just a light meal! It could be rather uncomfortable and depressing to live with, right? This is what gastroparesis does to you.
What Is Gastroparesis?
Gastroparesis is delayed gastric emptying, resulting in food being retained in the stomach for an abnormally long period of time. It literally means paralysis (paresis) of the stomach.
The process of emptying food from the stomach is controlled by the peristaltic action of the gastric muscles as well as the muscular opening of the stomach into the intestine called pylorus. This most commonly presents as a complication of uncontrolled diabetes or surgical intervention that has affected the vagus nerve supplying these muscles. It can also be associated with hypothyroidism and irritable bowel diseases.
Symptoms Of Gastroparesis
Notable symptoms of gastroparesis include nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, fullness, bloating, acid reflux, and upper abdominal pain. In the long term, you will very likely experience weight loss, anorexia, anemia, nutritional deficiencies, and even depression.
To combat these symptoms, you need to follow a step-by-step approach to understand the nature of the problem and deal with it appropriately.
Treating Gastroparesis Naturally
1. Diet Habits
It might seem obvious that liquids and semi-liquid gruel are the preferred choices to meet the nutritional requirement of your body. However, too much liquid might wash out your digestive enzymes. To relieve your gastric load, follow these tips:
Cook solid food properly and chew the food well before swallowing.
Eat small portions of food at a time and at frequent intervals.
Eat probiotic foods like yogurt and buttermilk to aid digestion.
Choose easily digestible foods. In other words, avoid foods such as meat salami, sausages, fried and cheesy foods, sweet items like cakes, cookies, or chocolates, nuts, tea, coffee, and aerated drinks.
Vegetable, fruits, and grains naturally delay digestion due to their high fiber content. Hence, juice them or prepare soups to ensure adequate nutritional supply.
Regulate the intake of baked beans, lentils, soybeans, and oats to reduce the bloating sensation.
Eat a solid meal preferably in the first two-thirds of the day when you are physically active to assist digestion.
2. Exercise
Following a sedentary lifestyle is a common factor in those with gastrointestinal issues. Stay a little active and keep such diseases at bay.
Walk regularly to regulate the gastric motility, blood circulation, and even the glucose uptake by muscles, especially in diabetics.
Avoid lying down immediately after a meal and sleeping during the day.
Take a short walk after each meal to aid digestion.
Yoga, breathing exercises, and meditation could have multifold benefits on a physical as well as a psychological level. They increase your pain threshold and activate the muscles and nerve centers for a general feeling of wellness.
3. Home Remedies
Include spices like turmeric, cinnamon, cumin seeds, rock salt, black salt, fennel seeds, carom seeds, and asafetida in your daily meals. This makes a huge difference by relieving the phlegm collected in the stomach and by mobilizing and digesting the ingested food. Here are some examples of the home remedies you could use:
Add a pinch of rock salt to a ¼ spoon of ginger powder. Take this mixture with diluted lemon water or lukewarm water just before a heavy meal to stimulate digestion.
Mix fenugreek powder (methi seeds) and cinnamon powder in equal proportion and store it in an airtight container. Mix 1 teaspoon (2 gm) of this mixture with lukewarm water and drink it on an empty stomach every morning. This will get rid of the phlegm that has deposited overnight and keep the glucose levels in check.
Dry roast a handful of carom seeds and cumin seeds for a minute on low flame. After it cools down, grind it to a fine powder and store it in an airtight container. Add 1 teaspoon of this mixture and a pinch of black salt to a cup of buttermilk and drink regularly at lunchtime. Buttermilk improves digestion and the absorption of nutrients, whereas carom seeds relieve the bloating sensation and abdominal pain.
Drink fruits juices made of pomegranates, pineapples, papayas, or cranberries to increase your appetite and stimulate digestion.
Eat 1 teaspoon of fennel seeds mixed with a ½ spoon of rock sugar (avoid if diabetic) after heavy meals to aid digestion.
Soak 1 tablespoon of black raisins in ½ cup water, cover it, and leave it overnight. Drink the water and eat the raisins the next day to promote bowel movement and relieve constipation.
Add 1 tablespoon of pomegranate seeds to 1 cup of yogurt and enjoy it with a pinch of black salt. This is a digestive aid disguised as a delicious snack.
Soak a handful of dried mangosteen (kokum) in 4 cups of water, cover it, and leave it overnight. The following morning, add black salt and sugar (avoid if diabetic) for taste. Bring this mixture to a boil to dissolve the sugar. Let it cool, strain it, and drink it throughout the day. It’s an appetizing and refreshing drink that relieves gastric problems like acidity, flatulence, constipation, and indigestion.
Ayurveda For Gastrointestinal Diseases
Ayurveda allays symptoms depending on the root cause when treating different health issues, including gastrointestinal diseases like indigestion (ajirna), acidity (amlapitta), or irritable bowel disease (grahani).
In general, the first step in ayurveda is to clear the undigested toxins called aama using digestive herbs like pepper and cumin seeds (called pachan). Then, herbs like asafetida, carom seeds, and nut grass (called deepan) are used to kindle the digestive fire.
Carminative formulations such as hingwashtaka churna and avipattikar churna (called anuloman) are used to facilitate the downward movement of gases. Subsequently, a mild purgative (virechana) is administered, if necessary, to alleviate constipation. Medicated enema (basti) is also used as it enhances the absorption of medicines parenterally, relieves constipation, and has multifold benefits.

Nature's Medication Chest
We often see testimonies in the marketing about cancers patients who have chosen alternative treatments, either along with or instead of conventional treatment. Not knocking this area of medical genius, but standard medicine will not own the theater of health treatment…not by an extended shot. It may not work for everyone, but for me, homeopathic one remedy medical and home good care can be an essential part of my daily personal heath. Some complementary and alternate medications or treatments are based on ideas and an evidence base that are not recognised by the majority of independent scientists. Alvarez has conducted a report on vertebral surgery patients to see if their outcomes improved by adding treatment with a PEMF device, which was approved for use in people by the FDA in 2004. Studies in humans demonstrated improvement in cells healing and decrease in post-operative pain. In her study on pet dogs, Alvarez was looking for improvement in wound therapeutic and the amount of time it needed for puppies to regain function. The data have never yet been published, but she identified her preliminary evaluation as showing some progress. However, learning just a little about logical and critical thinking, the methodical method, the type of how the least complicated person to fool is yourself, etc… You quickly observe how you have the ability to key yourself into thinking the way you do and just how gullible the human brain can be. Despite the integrative medicine trend, Braman said future doctors in america are still mainly trained to consider pharmaceutical options first and this will not change overnight. Alvarez made a custom orthotic to aid Mopsey's leg as the fracture healed and offered your dog pain medication, acupuncture, and treatment. The program will formally review how diet, natural therapeutics, and lifestyle behaviours such as exercise can treat a variety of diseases, including tumor and heart disease. Proponents say integrative and holistic treatments such as acupuncture and diet are finally being recognized and accepted by the original medical world. For anybody convinced that betaine hydrochloride sounds like acid, or something that may make the belly more acidic, you are accurate. Most alternative medicine providers concur that reflux is induced not by too much gastric acid, but by inadequate. Veterinary acupuncture is utilized to treat several conditions, such as paresis (muscular weakness induced by nerve destruction), hip dysplasia, arthritis, neurologic disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, paralysis and muscle injury.

the crafts market i was planning on selling at this month was cancelled due to storm weather. it was my main hope for paying off Liv & Webb’s transportation & food & medications. we’re going to need a lot more support. Black disabled people deserve to live.
thank you for every bit of aid
Calling on all non-Black ppl & abled ppl to contribute funds & share this aid request for my dear friends Liv & Webb!
We urgently need money for electricity & water, otherwise Liv may be killed on the streets by cold, life-threatening infections (especially COVID), and police/white supremacist violence.

what to know about this emergency situation:
--🌹🥀🩸--
Liv & Webb NEED their own secure housing to keep Liv safe from infection, especially covid.
She’s constantly bleeding, with an open stomach wound, has frequent seizures & even heart attacks, & has been only repeatedly abused by hospitals who, for example, coerced & manipulated her into signing a DNR.
Medical abuse & neglect has worsened her condition to unimaginable extents, even though treatment can significantly help her if only they could have enough money.
Webb always watches over her, tends to her body, keeps surfaces sanitized, protects her from abuse, desperately brings her back when she stops breathing.
Her teeth have broken apart and fallen out because she’s always throwing up & doesn’t have enough food to eat.
Liv worked extremely hard to graduate college with a degree in cybersecurity, but this cruel world has forced her to give up on her career dream.
Liv and Webb have been in love together for many years and would do & have done anything and everything for each other.
Webb has been physically disabled by a car crashing into him and by more medical abuse on top of that.
(Months ago, they forced him to walk 12 miles daily to physical therapy in excruciating heat with a fractured neck & back & everything because he didn’t have a working car nor money to get there using rideshare, and if he didn’t show up every day they wouldn’t pay his settlement for the car crash… even though they clearly knew it was only making his condition worse. Deeply evil).
Even in his physical condition, Webb has worked extremely hard to make money for Liv, but employers exploit his labor & cheat him of fair payment for his work because they know he can’t do much to retaliate.
Liv and Webb care wonderfully for their multiple beloved pets with their extremely limited resources, their puppy Blue loves and protects Liv.
Liv & Webb’s families are horrifically abusive and cruel and have left them to die, gloating to them that they’ll throw a party after Liv dies, sending the most horrible abusive messages to Liv.
One abusive family member forces them to pay full rent & utilities for a home that he frequently kicks them out of.
They can’t stay when he’s there - previously, he has brought friends to rape and beat Liv, he has purposely used up all of their living supplies, set the temperature to flip between extremes & blasted loud audio just to torture them, he has poisoned their beloved pets.
It’s extremely dangerous for Liv and Webb to stay outside: even when they have a car, they’re constantly chased away and harassed and threatened by strangers because they’re Black and poor and disabled. They’ve barely been eating anything at all.
Liv and Webb have been crowdfunding online for a long time (years!!) and received immense floods of harassment.
Liv and Webb need community support, money to secure their housing every month, money for their car, money for food and basic hygienic needs.
Liv and Webb are extremely important to me. They show me every day that people with illnesses and disabilities (like me) deserve unconditional love and care and support, that it’s possible for two people to love each other so dedicatedly that they weather & survive insurmountable obstacles & constant hatred from the world around them, no matter what, for years, even as their living conditions permanently alter their bodies and souls.
We need to support Liv & Webb so that they can continue living and caring for each other in this horrible world.
