I saw a post by Wendy that was about gastroparesis. I read it. It said
that there are fewer people who have it than once thought. So again, I
state... How could that be helpful to me? I was diagnosed with it via
endoscopy. And it was then confirmed. Is Robert saying that perhaps I
don't actually have it? That my Dr. was wrong? Or is he somehow laughing
at me because I am one of the few who does have it? I don't get it. I
really don't. If that was the post that was supposed to be helpful to *me*.
It wasn't. Nothing wrong with the post but I just don't get the *helpful to
me* factor.

And then after I read the post, Tiger Lily said I needed to go back and look
again. When I did, I saw the reply from Ozgirl. Again, nothing wrong with
that but again, nothing helpful to me. So could you please explain why this
would be helpful to me? Because truly I do not get it.
