Guest guest Posted December 29, 2002 Report Share Posted December 29, 2002 Welcome to any new members I haven't said hello to as yet! Also 'Hi!' to all the old ones whom I haven't heard from for ages. Where are you all?! {esp. the old UK members who have gone very quiet of late! I wonder why?!!! E mail me away from the group to just say hello if its none "A" stuff to chat about} I just wanted to say that as ever the same concerns will come up time and time again as new people are so pleased to have found the site and perhaps they have been thinking they are the only one to have to manage such horrible symptoms etc. I am one of the people who cannot tolerate bubbles. I know some people say it has prevented them from having treatment etc. but if like me you have NO movement in your oesophagus whatsoever I choke on most things and having something fizzy is a total nightmare! So if it works for you that is fine but it might not for everybody as with any other self help measure or medical treatment. I also read somebody being amazed that a dialation hadn't given any relief to somebody recently. I fail to see why this is such a surprise unless you haven't heard of those who are struggling despite treatments who have been members for some time now. Numerous people have no relief from one or numerous dilatation's. We are not all fortunate to get instant relief from any treatments; some of us despite treatment struggle to swallow anything and live very different lives to those who can eat anything with an extra sip / glass or two of water/alcohol or whatever else is your amazing find to help you be in control of your situation. A happy peaceful and as pain free as possible New Year to you all. Plymouth UK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
