I've got guts! (They just don't work)

Living with dysmotility

 I've got guts! (They just don't work) serves as a vessel for me to share my journey living with Gastroparesis and other dysmotility disorders. I am passionate about raising awareness and helping others who are on their journey. The goal of this blog is to: help those close to me understand what I'm going through, help those going through something similar, and to help everyone understand the intricacies of dealing with these conditions on a daily basis.
