Teresa
thank you so much for this..
yes - i have been "chatting" a bit with Brenda by replying to some of her posts.
i am not sure how to "post her with her connect name"??
i actually have an appointment with a surgeon in my area who does both the pyloroplasty and also pyloromyotomy. i had to change my insurance plan in order to see her - but since this is the ONE AND ONLY health issue i have - it was totally worth it - since the plan i had before the GI docs were less than helpful - advised me to "drink Ensure" .. i think i am on the right track now. i am on 80% liquids at this point and have to stop eating at 2 p.m. in order to get some sleep - so i really have nothing to lose.
