I just came from MD Anderson and now have my dilation procedure scheduled for this coming Friday. I am a little miffed that when I had a swallow study on December 9th, I had the identical problem then and the radiologist and technician focused only on swallowing function, and completely overlooked the esophagus. I feel like I have wasted two months without being able to eat because they did not bother to properly diagnose the problem.
Oh well, now that they have got it right, perhaps I will be able to eat real food next week. I sure hope so!
