Alfalfa hay is the smell of my childhood. It makes me incredibly nostalgic.

Update for those following my mystery health problems: I'm at the Mayo Clinic. We may have at least a partial diagnosis! in c/casualconversation@lemmy.world

I had the same surgery and it was very successful. Can't believe it but it's almost been 14 years ago. I got really lucky in that I still have peristalsis in the top two thirds of my esophagus so I can eat whatever I want 99% of the time. Still have to eat slow and I get terribly painful muscle spasms a few times a year.

I had the same thoughts about space after my diagnosis! I even worry about back injuries or anything that would leave me flat on my back in bed since swallowing would become difficult. Just SUPER grateful for laparoscopic surgery so I didn't have to go through the old open chest version.

Be well and swallow smoothly!

Hello fellow achalasian! I remember my first barium swallow test. They called in the radiologist since things were so abnormal. He looked at my images and just said "......huh". Good times.

FYI- Jason Kander dropped out of politics to seek help for his PTSD. He now works to house homeless vets and help Afghans fleeing the Taliban. He's pretty badass IMO. https://martincitytelegraph.com/2024/02/18/whatever-happened-to-jason-kander-hes-been-operating-daring-rescues-overseas/
