i got a diagnosis!

i got a diagnosis!

I saw my surgeon this morning and was told he thought I had one of 5 things he could think of...these were either an ulcer, stricture, inflammation, anxiety or nothing at all. 

He did a scope this afternoon and diagnosed me with the following.


I have mild esophagitis (inflammation) in my mid esophagus and I have a marginal ulcer at my anastamosis.

i have been prescribed pantorprazole 2x/day for 3 months sucralfate 30 minutes before each meal for 2 months.
 
At least i have answers and something to treat my new complication.
