No: Hi. No, if you didn't have gastroparesis before starting the GLP-1 drug, you won't have it after you stop it. However, I must add that if you stop the GLP-1 drug, you'll go back to being uncontrolled (assuming you ARE well controlled on it and whatever else you're using in combination for your diabetes). It just comes down to your ability to tolerate the GLP-1. Good luck!

Reversible: Delayed gastric emptying related to GLP-1 agonism is reversible and usually resolves within 2-3 days of cessation/stopping. This is why medications as such are stopped 2-3 days prior to completing a gastric empyting study to make sure it doesn't confound/complicate the interpretation. Hope this helps.
