Thanks for the advice. Actually I just got back from having the barium swallow test. I started having more chest pains (scary) and that got all of the Doc's moving. Turns out that I have a hiatal hernia. It's not like I need any more medical problems but that is way better than something cardiac. It also makes sense being that my abdominal muscles and weight are not ideal. In addition, I just spent 4 months totally non-weight baring (in a wheelchair) recovering from ankle surgery. So, onward. At least now I know and that alliviates a lot of stress/fear.
Thanks for taking the time to respond. Be strong when you can.
