egd 2 yrs after lap band

By bullpen87

· 319 views

Doctor ordered a barium swallow after I had shared some of the unusual symptoms I have just started having. The swallow test showed that my food was slowing down(and drink) before it even reached the band. EGD showed that I was having esaughagial muscle spasms whenever I ate or drank. He is prescibing a new med to relax that muscle so I can be more comfortable while eating.

I have lost 6 pounds in the last 3 months. Slow as it may seem, I'm still satisfied.:thumbup:
