Treatment of Stricture resulting from Radiofrequency Ablation.

I want very much to hear from anyone who has had Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) for treatment of Barrett's Esophagus, if they developed a stricture and how they are dealing with it.   Thanks!

Treatment of Stricture resulting from Radiofrequency Ablation.  This forum is completely useless. No meaningful responses, no help, few anewers to serious questions. For example:  see posting by Beachcomers,  or postings by podintx.

Have the docs recommended ballooning of the strictured area?

Good luck. It's like we're invisible on this useless forum. Unless, of course, you fork out the 16 or so bucks for the "professional" opinion which usually says you need more tests and to see a specialist. Sorry to be a party pooper, but take a look at my post on hiatal hernia. And you'll see what I mean. I've noticed you have several posts for the same thing, yet no response. I'd look for information elsewhere. That'd be my professional opinion. Save your money and don't pay for the generic "get more tests" answer on the paid forum.
