Closed petition Fund research and NHS treatment for R-CPD

Closed on

Retrograde cricopharyngeus dysfunction is a term for a medical condition in which a persons oesophageal sphincter cannot relax in order to release a gas bubble. I would like the Government to fund research and NHS treatment for this condition as it is a chronic dysfunction.

This dysfunction can be terrible and makes many people very miserable and in constant suffering. A few people suffering from this function have travelled abroad to receive treatment, which is not available on the NHS.
