Stricture Help/Remedy

I had a stricture and they did 5 dilations on me. Nothing was seeming to work so at 4 months without barely any food the Dr's finally decided to try something different. They did a 6th dilation and injected a steroid on the inside of my esophagus which is suppose to make it contract. I am feeling 100% better now. I was hopeless sooo ready to give up and done with trying to eat all together and they fixed me. I just wanted to put this up here just in case there is anyone else dealing with stricture issues. Ask about the steriod shot, its a miracle worker! I am so grateful I am fixed, hopefully this post helps someone else.
