Reflux or slowing: Symptoms right after eating make me think that your stomach is not emptying properly.Gastroparesis is when the motility of the stomach is slowed-common with diabetes, or from some meds.Symptoms are filling easily and quickly, belching and heartburn.Reflux is when stomach contents come into the esophagus, causing heartburn/pain.Both can be together.Eat small meals throughout day, raise head of bed.
