Andrew

35 years old

Business owner, who has been battling EoE since he was 18 years old

Andrew’s multi-year journey to an EoE diagnosis began on his 18th birthday, when he was hospitalised after food lodged in his throat, accompanied by chest pain. The severity and frequency of these symptoms increased over the ensuing 5 years before receiving a diagnosis of EoE. Recently Andrew has found relief for his EoE symptoms with specific treatment after spending many years wrestling physiologically, psychologically and socially with his disease.
