@imalady2 I saw that Grey’s Anatomy episode! Oddly, for the last month or so I have been suffering with some very strange symptoms, including severe, radiating pain just under my sternum, a heavy, overstuffed feeling in my abdomen. and diarrhea. I almost went to ER several times. Then I’m watching that Grey’s episode and, low and behold, they describe my exact symptoms! ((Altho I think they over-simplified the solution based on the surgery and recovery experiences I’m reading here!) I assume a gastroenterologist would be my next step? Or would it be a vascular surgeon?
I was told it was all in my head for nearly a year then finally they found it. I had full open surgery in 2013 here in Australia.
I have it and I’m at a Dr now for it. Saw the show. It’s a rare disorder.
