Are there any trials happening at Mayo for endoscopy procedure GPOEM for Gastroparesis? I under that there are promising results.
I have suffered for 3 years.
I do all the message and exercises to strengthen my stomach wall. I follow the diet.
I get better and then I get such cramps for days and am just miserable. I really want to get into a trial at some hospital for the G POEM.

Brenda, yes Mayo Clinic is studying the use of gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM). Here is the abstract of a recent study.
