I saw Dr Mo yesterday, and he think I have a stricture want me to get an EGD. I went to Dr Kim's office to make an appointment they needed to see me in the office first. I went and saw Dr Tan, he had an opening in his schedule today at 3pm, so in I go to have things checked into.

Heide, that's terrific news.  You will feel so much better once this gets fixed.  Please do post your experience so that others may learn too.  Perhaps you or someone else could list typical signs & symptoms of a stricture so that others will know what to watch for & know what to do about it.  We're all on a learning curve & knowledge is power.

Please do let us know how things turn out.

Hugs!
Ann

Oh Heide, you are so welcome.  I am glad you are able to get some use out of them.  I look at my closet now and say to myself, dang, I have no clothes, I need shopping.  But hey, thats a good thing. ; )

Heide,

Excellent news that you're having that EGD.  By now, it's hopefully over and done with and they were able to identify and fix the issue.  I had a stricture at exactly 6 weeks post op and had to have two dilations...but, no issues after that with the stricture.

I'm so happy to see you here...and hope that you know if you need anything at all to just call or PM me!
