Thank you for your reply! The information regarding new procedures is very interesting to me.
I wonder if the procedure is good for "inappropriate relaxation" of the LES? My closing pressure is fine but it tends to relax during the day. I have been on a calcium channel blocker for minor BP for about 4 years My GI feels this can contribute to gerd. What testing did you have done prior to the procedure? Did you have any insurance probles=ms??
Aetna\Prudential was a night mare they refused to pay for the endocinch procedure. they claimed it was to new!
Best of luck I have the procedure has you eating tacos in a few months!!
Thx
Paul
