That’s fantastic Margaret . I’m glad it worked out so well for you. Sorry to keep asking questions , but was it just the LES muscle that was cut , or did the doc cut the oesophagus also? I am to have what’s called an extended P.O.E.M which means the LES and the whole length of the oesophagus will be cut. This is because of the Jackhammer as well as the achalasia. 😮 frightening !
