What can I eat and drink that won't make me sick. Some of what I have been told is very conflicting and confusing for example, I've heard diet soda is ok, but caffine isn't.
I just don't want to get sick and wind up in the ER again.

There are diet pops that are caffeine-free.
This is what I found:
Emptying from the stomach is faster when there is less food to empty, so smaller, more frequent portions of food are recommended. Soft foods (or preferably liquid) that do not require grinding also are emptied more easily. Moreover, in gastroparesis the emptying of liquids often is less severely affected than the emptying of solids. Fat causes the release of hormones that slow down the emptying of the stomach. Therefore, foods low in fat empty faster from the stomach. In patients with severe gastroparesis, sometimes only liquid meals are tolerated.
