? Hi I’m Sarah and I’m 35. I live in the UK. I became ill in 2013 and was diagnosed with Gastroparesis in 2015. I have a PEGJ which is used for medication and draining only, as unfortunately I failed on the enteral feed and I am fed by tpn via my broviac line. Unfortunately I’ve been told I’m not a candidate for a pace maker, due to the Gastroparesis effecting my bowel also. As well as GP I also have a number of other chronic illnesses which also makes it hard to deal with. It has and is an emotional battle and I have my ups and downs. In and out of hospital with long admissions. But it has made me stronger and I won’t give up and let this or should I say these illnesses win!

I Have Suffered From Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome
I was diagnosed 1 year and 5 months ago but believe my GP started developing 3 months prior to diagnosis.
I have suffered from Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome for over 25 years.
I thought for sure with the GP diagnosis I would finally be heard and get some treatment and attention to my gut health.
Although, CVS is rare and I never received adequate treatment I had well phases. With GP I found I was more isolated and basically left for dead.
I have many diagnosis but I truly believe once my GI system went out everything was set off and flared.
I am here to be heard and fight with the best.
