Hello, a question someone may be able to give us some advice on. After minimally invasive Ivor Lewis, has anyone suffering from delayed gastric emptying had Botox injections to help and dilating the valve to help food pass through quicker ? And was it successful ? Side effects ?
Thankyou
Deb

Many... usually 3 things will be tried, in order, to improve motility. They are botox, dilation, G Poem surgery. You may receive multiple botox injections over the next 6 months... as they may not last. Our twice-weekly EC Zoom calls... this is often discussed. Pop on in... today, Wednesday, at 6pm Eastern... 3pm for me in California. Need the one-touch Zoom link?
