I’m just coming back to blogland. Any word on what ails you yet? Is it still almost impossible to swallow? This is scary.

If it’s a hiatal hernia, I’ll give you the number of a great acupuncturist in the city.

Have they looked at your cervical spine for pinched nerves or disk? You could have a build up of scar tissue in your throat, at worst a growth (such as a tumor). Have you also checked with a chirooractor?
Any of these would explain any pain in the shoulders or neck, or increase risk of injury.

Mark, you’re just going to have to admit that your current body is no longer functioning and it is time to upgrade to Mark’s Body 2.0.

If that’s not an option, perhaps you could could get a live in nurse maid to give you sponge baths?

I hope you get answers soon. The Canadian Health Care system is really good in a lot of ways but speed to treat seems like it is not one of them. Don’t hesitate to let your docs know how you feel. It just won’t do for you to die of starvation waiting for a diagnoses!!

I hope you feel better soon – very soon.
