Bill of Health
I’m not sure I want to think about the bill too much, but I think so far the copay is it- which isn’t that bad so far. As for my health? The barrium swallow, from what the doctor who took it said, showed nothing. Plus, the very unpleasant sensations had faded away in the day or two prior to the test anyway. The person taking the test suspected the very thing I myself offered as a potential cause- either something actually being caught in there, and/or abrasions caused to the throat (perhaps BY the things caught in there). Most likely, in my opinion, would be the kumquat seeds I swallowed.
Still have to look at some GI tract issues to try to find out what in the world I am alergic to that has been screwing with my digestive system for years now, but that’s not really related to this whole thing. So this case, itself, is closed.
I hope!So, rule for the wise- if you eat something with large seeds- especially seeds that have pointy ends- don’t swallow them. Unless your a masochist- in which case, I recommend you go out and buy a whole barrel of kumquats and maybe some pitted olives and go at it.

Well now, I am glad you are okay.
Have you eliminated wheat? I never knew I had a wheat allergy, until I read this book http://tinyurl.com/ybxdgn . I felt so much better after I followed some of the things I learned in there. I had a friend who was VERY sick and had been to many doctors who said they had no idea why she was so sick. I gave her the book- and she kept it! Said she had never felt better, LOL. I am an O-, so bring on the meat! When I get yucky feeling, dh takes me out for a yummy steak and salad- and I am right as rain
Well, physically I am. The mental part may never be right again since having kids, LOL
Glad to hear that it’s nothing serious but I still wish that you were pain-free……
Later!

Well, glad to see you (hopefully) got out of that with just a co-pay, and that your health is intact. Good news!
I can’t believe I never punctured my intestines eating a zillion sunflower seeds, pointy shells and all! LOL I would never eat those shells today!
Hope you’re having a good weekend.
