Hi im new here
 
I had surgery with a thoracic surgeon in PA, I live in KY. My surgery was Jan 11 the first time 11 hours. And reconstruction on Oct 31st.
 
I had surgery due to a severe reflux issue with aspiration into my lungs causing very bad pneumonia multiple times over a 2 yr period until I was referred to a surgeon in PA. He saved my life. Although now of course I have all the same issues because I had a gastric bypass with a little extra for the problems with my esophagus. Anyone else familiar with this?
