Yes I did have Barretts and they took around 75+% of the esophagus. And I still have Barretts even after almost 15 yrs that they monitor annually.

Than you. May i ask where you had surgery.?
Sounds like my sons.

If you don’t mind me asking, what do they do after they remove that much? Do they construct something ? How does that work? My husband has Barrett’s and the idea of that much being removed is frightening.
