Swallowing has improved dramatically with the stent but, I confess, the pain is much worse than I could have imagined.
This temporary stent remains for another 7 weeks and then we see if it has stretched the oesophagus enough for me to manage without.
Hoever, if swallowing becomes worse again then I will need to be fitted with a permanent one.
I hope the permanent one will not be this agonising.
