I have been having a problem with swallowing for some time now. The food gets stuck in my throat and I have to vomit it back up. I finally went to see a doctor about it and they think there is an obstruction in my oesophagus. It could be something simple, like a web of tissue, or something scary, like cancer. So I'm in for an upper endoscopy with the possibility of minor surgery depending on what they find. I'm kind of nervous and really hungry since I'm not allowed to eat. I'll let everyone know how it turns. Keep your fingers crossed.

    I had a upper endoscopy... totally not a big deal so try not to worry about that to much... I know easier said then done.
    You will be in our thoughts and everything will be ok.
