What can i do to reduce my risk for gastroparesis complications?

Several things: If you are a diabetic, you should attempt very tight control of blood sugars. You should consume a low fat diet. Avoid the use of narcotic pain pills or other medications which slow gastric motility. There are medications which can help; you should consult with a gastroenterologist who treats gastroparesis.

Diet and Meds: For 'diabetic gastroparesis', trial a low residue diet - avoiding 'stringy food' - such as cabbage, celery, tomatoes, oranges, asparagus, 'tough meat' etc (i.e. Anything stringy). Consider alternating 2-3 days of Erythromycin with Metoclopramide with two weeks 'off' between each drug - so 1 drug for 2-3 days per week then nothing then the other drug next week etc. Etc.
