Just diagnosed last week at Duke. Also had candida which the doctor is treating first. I had a manometry test Thursday. No results yet. I also have systemic scleroderma and have had lymphocytic colitis in the past. I meant drug allergies and a few environmental allergies which I understand can be an underlying factor. Any words of encouragement world be appreciated. Of course I have the rad on my arms and legs but because I've been on anticoagulants for years I just thought it was from them.
I really look forward to being able to eat again without passion swallowing and chest pain behind my sternum. Kate Farms meal replacement shakes have helped me to keep my nutrition and weight quite normal. I've only lost 10 pounds but the muscle mass loss from weakness and inactivity is unreal. I am in PT to build strength and work on my balance. I've had 5 orthopedic surgeries in the past 6 years. So the need for PT.
