Acid And Bile Reflux

Subject: acid and bile reflux
Date: 01/10/2008
My husband is also a survivor of esophageal cancer...had esophagectomy with stomach pulled up through his chest..then a fistula with feeding tube for 4 months.  We are at a loss as it sounds are each of you.  Kenny gets choked off and on day and night...hasn't slept laying down in over a year.  we just had a new scope, gastro doctor says he has never seen acid so bad...put him on the domperidome...been on that for 2 and a half weeks..not seeing much improvement..for those taking this drug, does it take longer to do some good or if it hasn't worked , not going to.  The surgeon has nothing to offer, gastro has nothing to offer, gp says you are going to aspirate and I don't know what to tell you...Kenny has just about given up on food, has lost 22 pounds the last month.  All he is eating at this point is mashed potatoes and applesauce.  Severe depression has set in, not that it hadn't before but much worse now...I am scared to death I will come home from work and he will have decided enough is enough...Can anybody offer any glimmer of hope that things might get better?
