G99.00: Gastroparesis in cases of autonomic neuropathy with endocrine and metabolic disorders
Your nerves have been damaged.
Your nerves have been damaged by another disorder. It is possible that it is a disease where metabolic processes are disturbed. Certain substances may also build up in the body or the quantity of hormones may have changed.
Nerves transmit information in the body. The information is processed in the brain.
When the nerves are damaged, there can be a variety of failure symptoms. Some organs may no longer work properly.
Your stomach is no longer working properly. The stomach is located in the upper left abdomen. The stomach stores food and breaks it down further. Harmful pathogens are also killed by gastric acid in the stomach. The stomach thus prepares the food for digestion in the intestines. If the stomach does not work properly, food does not get transported properly. You may feel nauseous and very full. You may also have to vomit and have stomach pain.
