Guest guest Posted October 3, 2004 Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 Rita a very good friend of mine had Achalasia and was for a long time not diagnosed. She was malnutrition by the time it was diagnosed, lost a lot of weight and hardly able to keep water down. The treatment was stretching and it has been totally successful and it was about 18 months ago. She felt the treatment was relatively easy, put her to sleep and afterwards she could swallow and keep food down. She then put on some weight and she needed to as her face was starting to show bone structure before. So good luck for yourself. Alma & Colin Lane Adelaide, South Australia mailto.clan1623@...
