Better after stricture repair

Hi all. Had endoscopy with dilitation yesterday to repair the stricture. Mine was 7 mm and he stretched it to 12. That will take care of me in the short term. Will be able to eat food again!!! YIPPEE!! Procedure was easy, the IV was the worst of all, like most of you had indicated. I will go back in a month and surgeon will do it again to get it to the size that most people have. Thanks everyone for the information and support. You are all angels!! ~Diana

Diana: glad you are feeling better after the repair. Hope all goes well with the next time. I have a really hard time eating anything it seems. sometimes even water doesnt want to go down. I chew and chew and it still seems like it wants to come back on me.Jan

Diana, Glad you are feeling better and the stricture is taken care of for now. Hope you are feeling better and have a great day. Colette
