Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | I have the same idea about the Endoscopys I have had over the yeras. I have barretts esophagus and have had The Nissen Fundaplication where the Dr wraps 1/3 of your stomache arpound your esophagus. This was done every 3 months and sometime 6 mo. Strange I ended up with OC as well as Barretts. It makes me wonder if there is a connection between the 2. Good luck with your surgery and with the great attitude, you will win. This from one winner to another. LOL
