@bevlynn54 .. I have chronic digestive disorders, GERD , Gastritis, Esophagitis, Small hiatal hernia, diverticulosis, and some IBS . The worst is 3000-4000 deep wet horrible belches and non stop churning gut 24/7 .
I’ve seen 5 Gastro Drs in 7 years. Tried everything under the sun . I’m off to Mayo Clinic Jacksonville tomorrow. I have to re do , 2 hr SIBO breath test , Entraogrophy C scan w/ contrast and another endoscopy with endo flip this time . In 2 days of testing . Plus they do a Covid test 1 st day . So 3 days .
Took me 7 months to get televisit. I’m at my last ditch effort.
Cannot eat anything w/ o major suffering. I eat so clean and healthy too .
I’m a mess . I hope you get the answers you need . I pray 🙏 they can figure me out . I live on Ultra Pepto and that’s it for my issues now . Can’t take much more . God Bless you … Rosemary

Rosemary,
I hope you find answers you need on your visit.
I was at Mayo Jax a couple of weeks ago. My team got changed. I needed my esophagus dilated again. Solid foods would not go down and liquids were beginning not to.
My new team is Jane Diamond NP and Dr Wolfsen. I only saw Ms. Diamond. I really did not spend enough time with her. Important thing is I am swallowing solid foods again. Scheduling worked hard to get me in on short notice. I did covid test, blood work, ecg and saw Ms Diamond in the morning and had the endoscopy (Dr Buras) in the afternoon. .. A whirlwind day!!

Please update when you can on how your visit went.
