Thanks for the reply ,

I'm glad to hear that the surgery has helped with the eating, but I'm sorry to hear you are having the other problems. I am continuing to experience chest pain - there seems to be 2 different types: a burning type of sensation which is horrendous, if I drink gallons of water as soon as I start to get it it does help: the other maybe the spasm you talk about, at this stage I have nothing to relieve it - but I'm going back to both specialist next week so they might help me then. Keep in touch and let me know what happens.

Thanks

Donna
