These were the two scenarios given to us today by the ENT as to why dad cannot eat 7months post treatment for tonsil and lymph
Anyone have any information on this
Dr. Said the way to find out is to treat as if it were to see if it works. Treatment for the spasm is Botox injection at the upper
Esophaguial sphincter.
Any advice would really help.
Thank you
Michelle
