Re: What Prompts You to Have Dilatation or Another Surgery after Heller myotomy

[Guest guest]

Hello YJ..

it has been a few years for Jessie right?  I am excited that you are seeing Dr.

Patti.

Cameron had a dilation about 8 months ago.  He had some scar tissue that was

growing impeding the food flow!  He did not realize he was having an issue

until he had a stretch..

That is all he has had done..

Carolyn mom to Cameron

now 19 myo'd and fundo'd at 14

It seems to me that a lot of you have more procedures dons after a Heller

myotomy. What triggers the needs for more to be done? How soon did the symtomes

come back?

I don't know how much I should worry about the way my 15-year-old daughter,

Jessie, is experiencing and if we should consider to have a dilatation or

another surgery if the doctor is recommending to do so. We're going to see Dr.

Patti in March.
