Gastroparesis, GP, is a life threatening, debilitating, digestive illness, becoming torturous at times, with no known cure. GP inflicts an estimated 5 million people, which has been suggested to be a low estimate.
It is imperative that Bill: H.R. 2239: Functional Gastrointestinal and Motility Disorders Research Enhancement Act of 2011 be passed, so Research becomes mandatory to find a cure. This Bill also gives GPers a voice. Efforts have been made to bring Motility Disorders out in the open throughout the years, however, other illnesses have taken the forefront.
The numbers being diagnosed with this debilitating illness are increasing, and the costs of the illness are astronomical.
