This is something your GI specialist will need to evaluate.
No, this is not normal. Need to be careful about using the term "gastroparesis." This is often misdiagnosed and patients get labeled with this erroneously. It is a difficult diagnosis to make, and the testing for it (stomach emptying test) has major limitations. You need a proper work-up to make a sensible diagnosis to explain your symptoms.
