Thanks, Jen. Did you have an EGD dilation for the scar tissue stretch or some other way of doing that? Massage? Thinking had to be EGD. Not fun. Sick of them. Every 3 months now.

@chrisanon I am not sure what EGD Dilation is. My therapist does myofascial release which is essentially a hands on stretch with a shearing motion to counter the pressure from the tightness. You just wait until it releases, and then they may change direction or apply a stretch in a different direction
