Do gastro fiber pills help with gastritis stomach problems?

Gastroparesis is a condition in which the emptying of food from the stomach is delayed, leading to the retention of stomach contents. This may cause bloating, early satiety, distention, abdominal pain, nausea, or vomiting. Gastric stasis may lead to worsening gastroesophageal reflux along with symptoms of heartburn and mechanical regurgitation of gastric contents. In addition, fatty foods and very fibrous foods normally exit the stomach slowly and may be poorly tolerated.

The diagnosis of gastroparesis is often suspected on the basis of symptoms alone:

Upper GI endoscopy is helpful to rule out anatomic obstruction of the stomach or duodenum but does not provide an accurate physiological assessment of gastric emptying. Upper GI barium studies may confirm delayed gastric emptying with a dilated atonic/peristaltic stomach with retained gastric contents. However, the upper GI series is more commonly nondiagnostic because liquids may empty normally from the stomach in spite of severe abnormalities in the ability to empty solid materials from the stomach into the duodenum.

Find the exact problem through a test 

The nuclear medicine gastric emptying test is the best confirmatory test for the evaluation of gastroparesis. A test solid-food meal containing a technetium isotopic tracer is ingested, and scintigraphy is used to quantitatively measure the rate of gastric emptying. This test is highly sensitive and specific, although false positives and negatives may occur in response to medications that accelerate or slow the rate of gastric emptying. When performing initial diagnostic testing, it is best to measure gastric emptying rates when patients are off of medications that may affect the rate of gastric emptying.
