I'm bumping this up from 3 years ago.

Is anyone receiving neurogastroenterological treatment?

Apart from being an end in itself (I'd give a lot to have my constipation cured), I think there's a chance that improvements to the ENS could spread to the brain. (The Braak hypothesis is that disease spreads from the ENS to the brain.)
