Thanks for the info P'nut! Amazing what can be done to look 'inside' these days - and definitely a good reminder to get reflux checked out sooner rather than later!

Thanks P-nut. It's good to see what we have gone through. Especially hiatal hernia patients.

Nice find Pnut! I think it is great to have these videos here for our members to look at. It allows them to see what they are going to go through if they need any of these procedures.
