This will be a prospective study using HbA1c values and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) to assess changes in glycemic control in patients with diabetes who undergo per-oral pyloromyotomy (POP) for medically refractory gastroparesis. The study cohort will consist of 40 patients with poor glycemic control who undergo POP. The investigators propose a prospective cohort study using CGM to compare glycemic profiles before and after POP in patients with diabetic gastroparesis. The investigators hypothesize that patients will have improvement in glycemic control and reduced variation in blood glucose levels (% time in hypo/hyperglycemia) after undergoing POP. These results will aid in clinical decision making, and may indicate an earlier need for endoscopic intervention in patients with uncontrolled diabetes and gastroparesis.
