A member asked:

Stomach stopped working temporarily undigested food removed via gastroscope & stomach had to be restarted with antibotic drip - what causes this ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

? gastroparesis: It sounds like a form of gastroparesis. The antibiotic I am assuming was Erythromycin used as a promotility drug. Gastroparesis can be idiopathic (unknown cause) or it can be caused by diseases such as diabetes. I know that tambocur can cause a neuropathy but I have never seen gastroparesis.
