A member asked:
Can gastroparesis caused by high dose ppi's be reversed? and are there any clinical papers on this please. thank you

Possibly: long-term PPI may cause severe vitamin B 12 deficiency which may cause a multitude of muscle disorders. You must get a vitamin B12 blood level immediately if not already done, as neurologic damage may be permanent. Diagnosis is typically based on vitamin B12 blood levels below 120–180 picomol/L (170–250 pg/mL) in adults.how did they prove it was due to the PPI's?
