Louise,

I assume you're still having problems, I'm sorry.
Do you have reflux, and did you have it before the
surgery? I had many things blamed on reflux until
I had a reflux test done and found that my reflux
was mild and couldn't be causing all the other
symptoms. Only then did the doctors listen to
me!
I've had swallowing problems in many forms since
I was about 18 (I even had a virus attack the
nerves of my larynx). It seems to be an elusive
problem for doctors, I'm sorry to tell. But
you definately have to be evaluated, especially since
it's obvious that it came after the surgery.

Take care
Ally
