Support Groups:

G-PACT recognizes the importance of patients being able to make a connection and communicate with others who truly understand. It has been our experience that through support groups, online or face-to-face, deep relationships have been developed and there is a common bond. In many instances, online support group members have had get togethers in order to meet in person. Many people have learned how to better manage their conditions and cope better as a result of being able to openly express their feelings with others who understand. For this reason, we provide several support group options.

Online:

www.yahoogroups.com/group/gastroparesis- largest online support group for GP and CIP on the web.

Facebook: If you have a Facebook account, we have a number of group options.
