What's The Longest Anyone has gone w/o problems since HM?

[Guest guest]

Merry Christmas Everyone! I dont get on here much anymore. Its been

now about 1 year and 8 months since my HM. So far so good. No

spasms, no throwing up, no nothing. I feel like I never even had the

illness. But I do get break-thru heartburn once in awhile which is 2-

3 hours of pure hell but its better than having it all the time like

I did before the surgery.

I can eat most foods except I haven't attempted meat of any kind

unless its pureed. I'm scared too.

My question is this. Who on here had 1 surgery without Botox or

anything else and has gone the longest without any complications? I

am just curious. Years? 10 or 20 years +? Longer? Shorter? Just

wanting to know. Becuz every once in awhile I still get scared its

going to sneak up on me and come back.

I had Achalasia with DES for about 2 years and then had the surgery.

They caught it early before I had really severe problems.

My surgeon told me that I could benefit from the surgery forever and

never have to have another procedure or I might have complications

about 10-20 years from now. He couldn't say.

Is there anyone on here now that can eat WHATEVER they want?

Please share your thoughts.

Thanks.
