[@AmitysLife]

Thank you for watching 💚 I hope you are all Well, let me know in the comments down below if you have any video ideas you would love to see from me 💕

[@mymultiplelife]

I am glad you finally have answers!!! Can you do a video on your treatment plan now that you have seen the gastrointerologist?

[@AmitysLife]

@@mymultiplelife I'm glad too 😅 I would love to do that, I will just have to wait till I get a treatment plan yet cos I first have to see the cardiologist and Rheumatologist before I see the Gastro again in October for a treatment plan ☺️

[@MOJORAPSCALLION]

Glad you’ve found some answers :) I have Ehlers Danlos that’s caused my Gastroparesis, Bowel paralysis, bladder paralysis etc etc I have multiple chronic illnesses many to list only listed a few xx

@@MOJORAPSCALLION Aww it sounds like you've been through a lot, sending big hugs 🤗💖

Hi Amity, I found your channel a few weeks ago when I first found out I could possibly have gastroparesis, after 15 months of hunting for a diagnosis. A couple weeks and one 4 hour gastric emptying study later, I found out that I do. I appreciate that you are a Christian, and that you do not hide that on your channel. I am a Christian as well, and it's been a blessing to me seeing the way you approach this illness from a perspective based in God's word. Seeing someone else’s experience with gastroparesis, specifically without having feeding tubes or something like that, has been very helpful for me wrapping my head around this diagnosis. The next steps for me are to find a neuro-gastroenterologist, create a treatment plan, and find out the cause for my gastroparesis as well. May God bless you as you continue on this journey!!

[@AmitysLife]

Awww thank you so much for this sweet comment 🥰 I am so glad they have found an answer to what has caused your pain. I am praying that they now find a way to help you 💕 I honestly don't know where I'd be without God. To be honest I don't even think I would be still alive. Keep fighting 💪🏼💚 you got this because God's got this

[@shannoncaeley]

@@AmitysLife Yes, exactly...because we know Who holds our tomorrow, we are safe and secure. Thanks for that reminder

Aww thank you so much ☺️

Glad you had fun at Frozen with your bestie, and that your appointment went so well! So thankful that you found a good doctor! Was he familiar with Mestinon for treating gastroparesis? Wondering if you'll be screened for Ehlers Danlos syndrome during the coming months. I've been getting an "EDS vibe" from you since I started watching your videos. Whatever the cause of your health issues, a unifying diagnosis to tie it all together would be both validating and empowering, since it would explain everything and guide you towards better treatments. Oh! Monday I get my first IV drip saline for my EDS issues! Those are super helpful for people who have EDS, so I hope it makes me feel better. Thanks again for sharing the video of your IV drip, so I know what to expect!

[@AmitysLife]

I am so glad about the outcome too! Yes I am being screened for EDS as the Gastro thinks it's highly probable. I am see the Rheumatologist and Cardiologist in June. And your so welcome I am glad the IV Vlog was helpful for you 💕

Next time you and Iz travel to Sydney, it would be hilarious if you both recreated the end scene of "Muriel's Wedding" when they're in the car! :)

[@AmitysLife]

Haha I'll have to watch the movie first 😅

[@savannahm5529]

sorry. Frozen is a bastardization of 1844 Snow 'Queen' by Hans Christian Andersen. you don't mess with a Classic.

[@AmitysLife]

Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣 I do love the classics, however frozen is one of my favs growing up 😂
