Early start this morning as Amy & James (oldest daughter and her fiancee) came home for a six week week Christmas holiday. Great to see them both - James is a really great guy and Amy is really happy.
I went to the doctor for the first time today having had trouble swallowing. Things like bread and cake just seemed to get 'stuck' behind my breastbone. Many people I've talked to since have said that they get the same sensation if they eat bread too quickly. I had a really bad experience with a muffin in Milton Keynes (not a boast!) where the blockage just wouldn't shift. Loads of hiccups and pain - quite scary!
I'd dome a bit of Internet research and was convinced this was a hernia - the doctor put the wind up me a bit. He said I needed an endoscopy and would arrange one asap. Bit more time on the Internet suggested it might be more serious.
