Hi
I was diagnosed with Barrett's esophagus 10 year ago I know the likely hood for cancer is more so than somebody without Barrett's
so in that time I have not I even been called for the camera even though it's supposed to happen yearly.
6 weeks ago I started experiencing dizziness to the point I couldn't get out of bed for a few days I got a gp appointment and he mentioned inner ear no referral was made but meds was giving anymore issues to go back still experiencing the dizziness I then began to have a very bitter taste in my mouth obviously acid then the pain came along with struggling to eat and drink.
I made a gp appointment and by then I started to pass blood so when I got to the doctor he would only deal with the bleeding side ( said it was a burst pile ) no referral made again and had to book another appointment for the difficulty in eating and drinking.
the appointment came and by this point I hadnt eating for 7days odd sip of water in that time very weak.
I was finally referred to urgent 2 week referral but decided to go private in the mean time to put my mind at ease ( that was a waste of time could t tell me anything didn't speculate ect)
anyway my appointment is today for the camera
Im so weak and feel dehydrated
I can't eat it feels like it's getting stuck and associated with pain
I have pain in my stomach
exsessive burping
my mouth is all broke out with the acid
my esophagus hurts and throat
I could go on but today is the day
has anyone else experienced any of this?
mum hopeful for good news but I know the risk factor and symptoms outweigh
And help advice would be appreciated
