Lesley,

So glad you were finally able to get the test, and that they actually found something. Hopefully the surgery will help and you will soon be really on your way to healing.

I still don't have a complete answer. I am waiting for the results of the biopsy. I HOPE it's negative, especially since I now have an alternative dx. I honestly didn't expect the hernia result since I had the surgery about 2 years ago. I hope it's "only" that and not Barrett's.

Anyway, thanks again for the support.

Leslie - glad to hear they FINALLY found what has been causing you so much pain. Praying the results for Barrett's is negative. And once you have the surgery to repair the hernia, you can move forward to healing.

Lesley,
You were in so much pain-- clearly you were not a hypochondriac. I'm glad they've found a reason for the pain and are continuing to look. I think too it can only get better.

hang in there,
Carol
