Gastroparesis.................Like snacking all the time?

I am certain I have gastroparesis (delayed stomach emptying). This is a form of autonomic neuropathy, mainly affecting the vagal nerve. Dr Bernstein has a whole chapter on it.

I have assumed this, as after a medium sized meal with some carbs, my peak BG is usually 2-3 hours, and it takes 6-8 hours to come back to baseline. I think because food is getting absorbed so slowly, my peak is lower than it would otherwise be, so one advantage I guess.

The issue is that I am trying intermittent fasting and following Jason Fung, who says snacking is more evil than the most evil thing you can imagine. But for me, if I have say 40 grams of carbs with a meal, it may be that only 5 or 6 grams gets digested per hour, so it is a bit like constant snacking? Not sure what I can do about this? Any ideas anyone? Does anyone else have gastroparesis diagnosed or just suspected?

Thanks

Anyone have any ideas about this.................Am I less likely to benefit from intermittent fasting because of my extreme delayed gastric emptying?

Thanks

Thanks for all the replies, and the video link.

I tend to wake up with about 5.5, which goes up to about 7.5 due to DP. If I stay low carb, then slowly come down to about 4.5 by 6pm, with a small peak after breakfast and lunch. If I keep evening meal under 20 grams of carbs, then don't go above 7.0, if have a box of micro chips (which I often can't resist), then up to 8.5 to 9.0. If have a pigout (perhaps once a fortnight Eg takeaway with the family, 100 grams of carbs, then up to 12-14). My home a1cnow test shows 44 (6.2), which is supposed to be equivalent to an average BG of 7.3, but I think this is still a reflection a little bit of the bad old days. My frestyle Libre says average BG of 6.4.

Too early to say if intermittent fasting is helping.
