Hi, gastro is stomach and paresis means weakness, so the meaning of expression is a weak stomach. Many abdominal complaints turn out to be gastroparesis. It is not a life-threatening, but rather boring disease as patients deal with it for a long time. Anyway, there are effective treatments available. The most common symptoms of gastroparesis are a feeling of fullness after only a small amount of food. If you have bloating, excessive belching, and nausea consider gastroparesis. Also vomiting, heartburn, or regurgitation of stomach may be indicating sign.
