Guest guest Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 Good Luck , What did you think of Dr. Vaezi? Isn't he a very confident doctor and just says it the way it's going to be and what's going to happen? " I am so glad to hear you are getting in within a month! They are very organized. The follow-up is wonderful also. They keep calling me to come back for my year check-up, but I keep telling them, if it's not broken, then we don't need to fix it. I told them I will come when there is any change. They just laughed and said okay. It's probably not a good thing to do, but I just don't want any more tubes or swallows for a while. I know I told you last week that I haven't had any spasms in about 4 months, well I spoke to soon. I had them 3 mornings in a row. They still aren't as bad as they used to be I am just not used to the pain anymore. All is well now, they just wipe me out for a day and I get scared to move that it might come on again! How far are you from TCC? Are you staying over the night before in that fancy hotel next to the clinic? We drove home after the procedure. I even stopped and ate because I was starving. Our drive was about 2 1/2-3 hours. Let us know how everything went as soon as you get home. Good luck. in Bethel Park, PA Re: Re: Post Myotomy Dilatations/ Dr Ostroff at UCSF HI Sandi ! Welcome to the one in a million club! Sorry to hear that though. Funny my surgeon also said that if I had not told him he would not have known I had a myotomy !! Good wishes for your choice of treatment. Have you definitely decided on the dilatation option ? Hope it is soon and you can get some relief again. 11 days to go for me. I have an urgent appointment with my cardiologist about my raised BP next Tuesday. I am wondering if it is not the 25mg of amytriptaline that I have been taking since February which has pushed up my BP. Feb is about when it started to rise, and because I had such awful stress then I did not notice it. I have got a new book from the Readers Digest about medicines and their effects and side effects and there it says for Tryptonol 'If you have high blood pressure notify your doctor' - most doctors would not know about it either so it is a bit of a silly statement, but it is a lead or warning. I stopped it on Sunday so now we will see what happens. How is your daughter? Saw a series on Telly recently about the development of the foetus in the womb - the most stunning pictures and I thought of her. And the business ? It must be busy now that you are going into summer. Lots of hugs and good wishes, Joan RE: Re: Post Myotomy Dilatations/ Dr Ostroff at UCSF Hello all, I had my consultation for a second opinion with Dr Patti today at UCSF. He said I have two options, either a series of dilatations or another surgery. He said I am one of the 10% of failed myotomies which means I am now one in a million. LOL He is writing a letter to my PCP explaining for insurance purposes that I am not to have the procedure done by anyone but a specialist who specializes in doing dilatations on myotomies. He said there are only 3 Dr's that he is confident with. Dr. Richter in Pennsylvania, Dr. Vaezi at the Cleveland Clinic and Dr. Ostroff in San Francisco. I am very confident with Richter and Vaezi.Dr. Vaezi would probably be my first choice. I just haven't heard much about Dr Ostroff. Does anyone have any experience with having dilations post myotomy with Dr Ostroff at UCSF? Patti seems to be a little concerned because of all the scar tissue that I had at the time of my surgery which was why I perforated. He also said that from looking at my most recent x-rays.if he hadn't known that I had a myotomy, he would not have believed it. Any news regarding Dr Ostroff would be appreciated. I also had a little visit with Cameron and Carolyn while I was there. Carolyn is a sweetheart of a mom, and Cameron looked absolutely wonderful! He is really bouncing back quickly after surgery!

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 Way to go Cameron!! You sound like a real trooper. Hope you get to eat everything you want as soon as possible. I was very young when I started with A. I wished back then, they knew what to do with it. So happy they helped you this early. Take care little guy, it's going to work out well for you now. Carolyn, glad to hear you get to go home today! Take care and keep posting. in Bethel Park, PA Re: Re: Post Myotomy Dilatations/ Dr Ostroff at UCSF HI Sandi ! Welcome to the one in a million club!

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 Thanks ! I'm looking forward to treatment. I've been pretty good with my spasms, last one was over 2 weeks ago. I'm sorry to hear that your's are comming back! I've found my trick is ice water-- when I feel one comming on and it goes away in a matter of seconds! Hopefully everyone can find their nitch to stop the spasms as everyone is so different. Dr Vaezi is great, so personable and so willing to answer your questions! I saw some other postings people have said that he's one of the most experienced dilators, I feel comfortable in his care! TCC is 3 1/2 hrs away, but I plan on going home the same day. As far as check-ups, I'm definitly all for getting a barium annually. I could probably even do a barium at my local GI and send it to Dr Vaezi since TCC is far from home. They did mention having manometry's annually too, I don't think I'm agreeable to this because #1 manometry's are unpleasent and #2 with the Barium swallow you can see what the LES is doing--granted you can get the pressure readings though. I guess it depends on the situation too. I look forward to having food slip down my esophagus and not " hanging out " any more!!!! in Michigan > Good Luck , > > What did you think of Dr. Vaezi?
