Who here has no mobility in there esophagus anymore?

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone!I pop in every now and again when I have time and

read the post but just stay so busy.I have a question for you all.

After 's surgery, for those who may not remember , he is my son

that at age 12 had the myotomy and fundo in Dec, was still have

problems getting the food to go down.We went back done more test to

see if there was a problem,scarring,blockage etc... everything was

said to be fine but we were told 's E just had no normal

mobility anymore.It just kinda goes every which way and not pushing

down from the top to the bottom like a normal E should. Heres my

question.If your E has no mobility, what symptoms or problems does

it cause you?

is able to eat WHATEVER he wants but he still has to make

himself burp and push big gulps of air into his E to push the food

down.It doesnt go down with water alone.We discussed this with the

Dr and was told because of the mobilty of the E that that may just

be what he has to do because of the situation of the esophagus.

and my husband and myself has been blessed that is able

to eat whatever he wants after the surgery. But I am really starting

to get bothered by this.This problem he didnt have until AFTER THE

SURGERY!!!!I also explained this to the DR. says its fine and

hes use to it and does not want to go back in for no surgery becuase

he is happy(according to him) with being able to eat and doesnt want

to go through nothing and make it worse and start up the bad spasms

again. Ijust hate the fact he has to " work " so hard to get food to

still go down.I hate the fact he has to burp and make all that noise

trying to get it to go down.What is he gonna do when he starts

getting into serious dating and going out to eat?Burp and carrying

on at the table?? Ijust cant imagine him having to do this.Iknow its

worse things than this for people who suffer with A and alot of

people would love to only have this problem but it just breaks my

herat with him being a kid and having to go through this.He still

gets kinda hesitant to g out to eat and I know its cause of how he

has to get the food to go down.

Anyway-sory to bend yall ear, just wanna see if anyone has this

problem and what your opinion is.I think I posted about this early

on but didnt get much of a response.So many new people im hoping

someone can help.Thanks so much,Hope all is doing well, Tonia
