my stomach hurts.
MY OTHER MIND
Fundraising, research, treatment and a community for anyone living with a rare stomach disorder or chronic illness. Become a member or donate today!
MISSION
It isn't easy for someone with a rare stomach disorder or chronic pain to navigate the healthcare system, the school system, the justice system and more. These systems can get especially hard, and at times dangerous, for low income families of color also navigating systemic racism.
We want you to know you are not alone. Don't feel limited by your condition (or your loved one’s condition)– you/ they can still live an amazing life as we work to find cures!​
​
We welcome anyone living with or researching Rumination Syndrome, Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome, Gastroparesis and other rare stomach disorders to join the network!​
