I also have Achalasia and it is so hard to tell when you have those spasms where they are from. What surgery did they do for your esophagus? I previously had a Nissan fundoplication but he said I might need another now. We are trying Botox injections. I am scheduled for mitral repair in May which is my priority this year. Good luck on your heart surgery. Hope your recovery goes well.

Norma Lausten Hi Cameron, I had a Heller Myotomy with a partial fundoplication and a hiatal repair in Feb of 2020. Since then I can eat normally but now I have acid reflux so I take pantoprazole daily. Good luck with your mitral repair.

Hi Norma, You soon will have a stronger heart and be in recovery. Wishing you well!! When you are in the ICU, don't hesitate to tell your nurse of any discomfort as soon as you fell it. If you want a specific food item, ask for it. Your appetite may not be very strong for a couple of days, but it will soon come back . We are all rooting for you. You got this. It will be over soon!
