Dear Dr Phil,
I also wanted to give you a BIG thankyou for drawing attention to hyperemesis gravidarum.
I have had hyperemesis two times, and was struck by how little information or help there was for the condition.
It is a condition that is often discounted, belittled or undertreated. It is also a condition that causes significant suffering for the mother and family.
The HER foundation's website and forum has been a real blessing to myself and others. It's been a wonderful place to get information and support.
I am so thankful that you are talking about hyperemesis gravidarum on your show. It needs to be talked about. The more educated people are about it, the better treated mothers will be.
