What is Gastroparesis?
Gastroparesis is a digestive
motility disorder where the vagus nerve is damaged. The muscles and nerves of the stomach, intestines and other
GI organs become paralyzed. This condition delays food emptying from the stomach and other GI organs which
can result in serious complications and further gastrointestinal problems. 1 out of every 2 diabetics will develop
Gastroparesis. This is 50 percent of all patients.
-National Institutes of Health estimates there are over 10 million
Gastroparesis patients in the United States. Lack of medical education of Gastroparesis and patients not being properly
diagnosed are still left untreated, suffering in silence.
*Gastroparesis is most commonly caused by diabetes,
but can also be hereditary or occur as a result of surgery on the stomach or vagus nerve, viral infections, medications that
slow contractions in the intestines such as anticholinergics and narcotics, gastric bypass, lapband, gastric sleeve surgery,
smooth muscle disorders, gastroesophageal reflux disease, metabolic disorders, autoimmune, anorexia nervosa and bulimia.
*Idiopathic Gastroparesis has
no known origin. Many diagnostic tests can be performed however it is still unknown to the medical profession the cause
of those patients who suffer from this more rare type of Gastroparesis.
"The Gastroparesis Awareness Campaign
Organization"
'GACO'
Our mission is to spread world
wide international public awareness and education for this debilitating GI disorder.
Reaching out to all Gastroparesis patients who
feel alone. We are here for you. YOU my friends will never again walk alone.
The most important issue will be continued
communication with local Government on increasing federal funds for research and development as well public awareness activities
to educate all state citizens of Gastroparesis and other GI motility disorders. We will continue close communication
with current bio-tech companies which are in their final research stages of the new Gastroparesis
drugs (diabetic GP patients-medications for Idiopathic patients still not being researched) due to come out on the
market late 2011-2012. The fifth round for individual state Government aid helping to declare national
awareness events for Gastroparesis Awareness will continue summer-winter 2010.
*New project for 2010-GP Angel Wings.
*Don't forget to check out the Gastroparesis
Awareness Campaign gear that is now available for ordering: 2010 t-shirts, calenders, car door magnetics, bracelets,
window decals and tote bags.
Make sure to order your official Gastroparesis
Awareness ribbon.
TOGETHER WE WILL FIGHT FOR A CURE!
