I've been seeing a neurologist for years. My neck is fused and I have a spinal cord stimulator put in in March. I also get BOTOX for my migraines for my neurologist. I will be seeing her next week to discuss all the new findings to see you if they can help me in any way. In the last two weeks I'm getting choked on food and water I have constant heartburn. I work in ICU so I know the complications that can happen. Thank you for sharing your story. Did they find anything out in your manometry tests?

The results are going to take 4-6 weeks due to staffing issues (only one dr reads them!?) so TBD… it’s hard to wait! I hope you get faster turn around. I’ve loved working with speech to build my confidence around eating safely. However esophageal issues are really frustrating! Im unsure if it’s ultimately connected to POTS for me? Are you able to get any calories in?
