Adjective
cacogastric (comparative more cacogastric, superlative most cacogastric)
- (rare) Troubled with bad digestion.
- 1833 Thomas Carlyle, Diderot, Foreign Quarterly Review
- Diderot writes to his fair one, that his clothes will hardly button, that he is thus "stuffed," and thus; and so indigestion, succeeds indigestion. Such Narratives fill the heart of sensibility with amazement; nor to the woes that chequer this imperfect, caco-gastric state of existence, is the tear wanting.
