  1. Esophageal spasms

    swamppossum replied to swamppossum's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I truly hope its a go for you. Please keep me updated. I was not having and am not having any GERD symptoms. Only the occasional indigestion. These spasms were an incidental finding on the barium swallow. Now I have to have a test that measures the strength of the lower muscle of the esophagus. I was wondering if anyone knew how often this occurs or if it prevents anyone from getting sleeved. Kinda anxious.....

  2. Esophageal spasms

    I am in the process of preparing for my sleeve. Part of my preop is a barium swallow. It revealed I have esophageal spasms. This is news to me as I have never had any symptoms if regurge. Has anyone else had this diagnosis and still qualify for the sleeve?
