Hi dr i just wanna know how to test whether my stomach is empty or not?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Empty stomach.: It normally takes 2-6 hours for your stomach to empty after eating depending on several variables. Unless you want to send a scope down into your stomach to video the contents, there is no other test.
