National EOS Awareness Week is an Australian awareness campaign and research fundraiser. The following is a description of what EOS is from the American Partnership for Eosinophilic Disorders' press release:
"Eosinophils (pronounced "ee-oh-sin-oh-fills") are a type of white blood cell that helps our immune systems fight off infections and parasites. They also play a role in allergic reactions and inflammatory processes.
When a person has elevated numbers of eosinophils in their digestive system, tissues, organs, or bloodstream without a known cause, they may have an eosinophil-associated disease.
These conditions are further characterized by the areas of the body in which the eosinophils have accumulated. Examples include the esophagus (eosinophilic esophagitis), stomach (eosinophilic gastritis), and bladder (eosinophilic cystitis).
Symptoms of eosinophil disease may vary depending on the area of the body and age. Patients often embark on a long, frustrating journey of seeing many different specialists before a diagnosis is made. Although not commonly life-threatening, these chronic diseases require lifelong treatment and can cause debilitating symptoms. Most subsets of eosinophil-associated disease do not yet have an FDA-approved pharmaceutical indicated for treatment."
The United States holds its Eosinophilic event in May.
