Hi, @achalasia2 I jumped out to read your profile and saddened to read how much pain you have been through for such a long time. I am glad you created this discussion to connect with others who know more about the journey you’ve been on with Achalasia Type 2, POEM and closed sphincter.

There is a related discussion about Achalasia you may want to review if you haven’t already. I also am tagging members who have mentioned dealing with or knowing others who have dealt with a type of Achalasia and POEM @margaretmary, @jenniferb, @dstb83bb, @franduffy and @candidough47.
