Campaign Urging Research for Eosinophilic Disease (CURED)
About Campaign Urging Research for Eosinophilic Disease (CURED)
The Campaign Urging Research for Eosinophilic Disease (CURED) 501(c)(3) mission is to raise substantial funding to aid in research and public awareness for this complex disease. Although the number of people diagnosed with this disease is on the rise, very little is known about eosinophilic disorder. CURED supports and encourages research, and provides other services including patient advocacy and networking. Eosinophils are a type of white blood cell, and eosinophilic disorders are disorders that are characterized by the presence of above-normal numbers of eosinophils. Symptoms vary widely, depending on the area affected, but may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, failure to thrive, chest pain, difficulty swallowing, poor appetite, and anemia, among others.
