Hey guys,
after 3 years of living with motility disorder, i have finally found out the name of what i had (meaning i lived three years without knowing what kind of illness i had, which was quite scary). but you guys seem to know the different parts of motility disorder and i was wondering if you guys knew what kind i had. well here are my symptoms:
I start gagging incessantly when:
- in the morning when i talk or brush my teeth. i also can barely eat anything otherwise i start gagging. my tolerance for any foods is nothing compared to the average tolerance, and this is added on to the previously mentioned disrupted appetite.
- my anxiety seems to be hypersensitive. if i'm meeting up with a friend i haven't seen in a while, i gag on my way there while walking in the streets to his/her place. this way it's pretty impossible to make presentations, have interviews for jobs, and anything that requires appointments.
- besides the mornings, my tolerance for foods has really decreased generally and i feel the need to gag when i eat up to 50% of what i consider being full. this way i eat extremely slow otherwise i will gag or throw up.
- i can't eat/drink anything sweet, anything with soy sauce or else a minute afterwards the gag reflex comes about.
- i can't do any physical activity that requires me to breathe heavily. this means i can't run, and i don't mean 100 meters or something that far, i'm talking about maybe 15 steps+.
i'm 19 and have been living the past 3 years of my life unable to eat sweets, run, eat, nor perform/present normally. it would be really helpful if anyone knew any diagnosis of what i have, treatments, or special doctors i could go to. thanks for listening guys.
