Need your Opinion

[Guest guest]

Janers, I can't answer your questions about what happens after

the myotomy because I have not had one. I can tell you that my

symptoms first started with the chest pains like your, then came

very shortly after, the difficulty in swallowing. As the difficulty in

swallowing progressed and it did rather rapidly, I started to lose

what I ate and drank. I was losing the food I just ate, not food I had

eaten the day before. Some of what I ate had to have been getting

through because I only lost 30 lbs in 3 months, but it certainly didn't

seem that I was retaining anything.

The thing that upset me most was losing the water I drank. I stayed

so thirsty. I have always drank a lot of water so I was more thirsty

than hungry.

As these symptoms got worse the pains eased up somewhat. I had two Botox shots which did not help, then I had a dilatation 8 months ago.

Right after the dilatation the chest pains returned for a while but slowly

improved. I still have them sometimes but not as bad as they use to be.

The dilatation was not that painful for me and I was only uncomfortable

for a short time after. As a matter of fact I ate a bowl of chili on the way

home. It went down without pain or difficulty.

Janers, it will be hard I think for any of us to tell you whether a

myotomy will get rid of your pains or not, since we all seem to be

somewhat different. This is indeed a very strange disease. It seems

we all have the same symptoms, but they don't always follow the same

order.

This group has helped me a lot in understanding what is happening

to me and how to manage the symptoms, but I think each of us has

to more or less decide what might be best for us and walk in a bit

blind, but with a lot of faith.

Good luck and I hope that your test on the 3rd will define things

a bit more for you so that your decision will not be as hard to

make.

My thoughts and prayers remain with all who write here.

I thank you for you indepth note to me. I appreciate it a lot. I am

just looking to find out what May or may not happen by reading what

others say. I am just confused as to how bad symptoms really got.

I am finding that every time I eat now, the chest seems to swell up and

feel tight again. I am not vomiting but do regurg in my mouth

occassionally. I am chewing gum like mad and that does seem to help but

don't help the painful jaw very much LOL.

My doc will not even try botox since I have been dialated twice. So

that option is out. I just wish this pressure would let up. I guess

I have to have that faith and wait till those NICE tests are over and we

weigh the options.

Has anyone ever gone to OSU in Columbus?? Most of you have mentioned

UCLA or Cleveland.

Let you go and thanks for all that responded. \

thanks again.

Dear Scientists/Clinicians,

Hope all

of you enjoying your research work.

Here I wish

to receive everyone’s opinion regarding type 1 diabetes (Juvenile Diabetes). Can

you advise me novel, unexplored, areas requiring further

exploration and research that will help unexpected understanding of the disease/

treatment/management and/or point to an unexpected treatment of Type 1 Diabetes?

This will be

great prospect for me to continue my research in the thrust area of type 1 Diabetes.

Looking for

your quick support & response in this regards.

 

Thanks

& Regards,

Good luck and try to reduce stress as much as possible!At the end,which you'll see,ORE1 is an exam of intuition and luck,and at the end-knowledge!at least that was my experience:-)all the best,Ana
