Got the results of my medical tests and naturally I couldn't have..

the standard ailment like anyone else. I've got to have some exotic mother. In my case the muscles in one end or the other of your esophagus quit working and you can't swallow. In my screwed up scenario my entire esophagus has shut down. They are going to give me a medication that is actually a blood pressure medication but just happens to work on this particular esophagus problem. So I hope this crap works and I can eat again instead of starve to death.

Plus I've got a polyp in there ( you could see it in the pics ) that will have to come out down the road aways as it could prove to be cancerous. But in my current condition I'd never survive the surgery so that ain't going to happen for a long time if ever. So I hope this new medication fixes my happy arse up and I can fatten up again.

:usaflag:Get better real soon and best wishes from Minnesota. :thumbup:
 
Well at least they know what is causing it. I hope the medication works for you Bill. Take it one step at a time.

Good Luck.

Sorry to hear of your illness Bill...I can relate to that. Being ill sucks....I fought Cancer for 7 years, then moved out here..and was ok for awhile but it has come back during dredge season as I pushed myself waaaay too hard (gold fever) ....Hard to get motivated to detect now, plus the weather sux! Back on my treatments as I got too slack on them for prevention or recurrence.

Good luck Bud!
Eat a big ole steak when you get better!

Tell your esophagus to get its act together so you can get out and play with your AT. Hope your new meds work asap.
 
Hey Bill,

We might match for the bag of bones thing lol. I am down to 127 lbs fron 145 when healthy

Bearcat4160, I know where you are coming from. If not for the clinical trial I am in I would be going down rather that up. Hang in there. I am seeing lots of new treatments coming down the pike.

Best to both of you and my prayers for you too.

Bill, I'm glad they finally out a name & treatment to it, and that you can get fat again :biggrin: Take care of yourself. Don't let the pollup worry you; they are pretty common, and normally benign. I had one removed from my vocal chords back in 1988; benign, and no re-occurance. All the best to you.
 
Yeah I had 13 of those puppies removed from my colon about ten years back - all benign. I hope this one turns out to be the same.

Bill
 
Yeah you lost a ton considering your normal weight but I'm down to 125 from about 180 - 190. I look like something that escaped from a freak show. HAA. Hope you get better bud. Lousy health sucks.

Bill
 
Stick with those treatments bud and don't let that booger get you. You got a lot of nuggets to find yet. Are you on chemo, radiation, or what? Take good care of yourself.

Bill
 
Ya better get feeling good. We are looking forward to your opinions and hope to pick your brain for many more years.

John
 
Feel better, Bill. Hope you mend up quick because I'm looking forward to reading your experiences with the AT-Pro.

I'll keep you in my prayers.
