| Esophagus/Trachea Stent
Hi...I'm new to the boards and was wondering if anyone had any info on stents placed in the trachea and esophagus. My grandmother recently had a metal stent placed in both her esophagus AND trachea. She's been having a lot of trouble swallowing, eating, drinking, and sleeping. She wakes up with coughing fits. We're thinking this is probably a normal thing considering the circumstances, but we're not sure. Anyone who knows about it or has had any sort of experience, if you could reply it would be greatly appreicated.
Thank you!
