Leiomyoma...

I what I have. It is a benign growth of the muscle layer of my espohagous. The GI did say that these things can turn to cancer but for now appears to be benign. I will follow up with my oncologist and a thoracic surgeon and weigh the risks versus benefits of removal versus monitoring it.

See, you did catch it from Cozmo. If what you've got isn't a MEGAesophagus, I dunno what is :)

Thank goodness it's not cancer!
