I was missing posting for 2 or 3 days. It's time to explain why now. I am 9 months behind on being scoped for Barretts. My swallowing is getting harder each day. Even coffee or water want to come back out of my mouth and this is miserable. I am calling the Dr that did the Nissen Fundiplication in 1996 on my esophagus and fixed my 1st Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm in 1999. We had decided to wait until things started to get worse before the next scope. I think that time has come and he will dialate my esophagfus too as he always does. I will call in the morning and get things rolling again. Must be time to get back to the 3 month schedule. Thanks to those that worried about my welfare..
