I went this morning and had my EGD (scope) completed at Robinson Memorial Hospital. Dr. Micheal Cline did my EGD, he is a Gastro doctor. He is good at what he does.
He found that my esophagaus was lined with ulcers probably a result of the radiation and stomach acids. He started me on strong doseages of Nexium and Carafate. He said if I am not seeing much improvement within 2 weeks to call him.
I had suspected ulcers but I did not know to treat them the same way if they were a result of the radiation. So, at this point, I started the meds today, still have lots of pain and taking Oxycontin. Still can't eat and throw up everytime I try. I am hoping after a week of treatment I might see good progress!
