Welcome, @achalasia2. you sounds like you need expert medical care. If you would like to get a second opinion from Mayo Clinic experts, you can request an appointment at Mayo Clinic. Hopefully, the Jacksonville Florida location might be an option for you. Click this link to talk with a scheduler http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63
