Well, I'm back from an upper GI scheduled by my new surgeon. Not necessarily a

pretty site, imo, but I'm going to put it out there for you all and see if

anyone can give me an idea of direction that I'm headed.

Short story, myo in 98, dilatations almost every year since due to spasm and

dysphagia. Today my E is distended to twice normal size (on fasting... can't

imagine looking at it with food :/) and there was no barium past LES. I fear

that a 2nd myo wouldn't last me all that long, nor would it help with the

distension. I guess I'm just wondering if my " fears " will be realized and I'm

headed towards 'ectomy. Not really something I'm looking forward to, with a

preschooler and a newborn, but I'm ready for whatever I need to do in order to

get back to a somewhat normal life.

Opinions? Any comments will be much appreciated :)
