A friend of mine is unable to digest any of the food she eats and after going to numerous drs, one wants to put a gastric pacemaker to help with the problem. Does anyone here have one or know anything about it? She's been unable to find any info from anyone having this done. I would appreciate any advice. thanks

I haven't had or heard of these until you posted your question, but I did a search for "device to stimulate gastric" and came up with this link.
http://www.faqs.org/patents/app/20... You might find other links that are helpful as well, but this describes how the device works. It is kind of in techincal speech. Here's another article that specifically mentions gastro paresis. http://www.gastro.org/wmspage.cfm?... Best of luck.
