Hi Suzy,

Sorry about that. I'm investigating it presently. Meanwhile, if you send me your details, postal and email address to barretts@chrisrob.co.uk, I'll get one sent to you.

All the best

   Thanks for posting the link I've watched it like 5x on my DVR ..I did the same thing (turned green)when the the halo doctor told me you have HGD barrettes not just barrettes .I asked my doctor how could the first GI miss this after 23 biopises ?? He replyed " I DON"T SEE HOW ".. Good doctors are hard to come by that's why I'll be flying 500 miles to see mine this week ..

Take care , HGD JEFF ]]> Mon, 06 Sep 2010 14:51:57 +0000 http://www.barrettscampaign.org.uk/forum//forum_posts.asp?TID=464&PID=2397#2397 http://www.barrettscampaign.org.uk/forum//forum_posts.asp?TID=462&PID=2396#2396 Author: Suzy

Hi Chris

I'd very much like a copy of the Cool Food recipe book but my email to the address you have provided has come back from systems administrator saying that email account does not exist. Is there an error somewhere?

How did it get so far and no one saw it . I get my teeth cleaned every 4 months , first thing she looks for is cancer because I still drink and USE to smoke 12 cigars a day.

His cancer is on his tongue - a tumour the size of a walnut.
He has an 80% survival chance. (cf <10% for Oesophageal adenocarcinoma)
He blames years of smoking and drinking.]]> Fri, 03 Sep 2010 16:34:17 +0000 http://www.barrettscampaign.org.uk/forum//forum_posts.asp?TID=464&PID=2393#2393 http://www.barrettscampaign.org.uk/forum//forum_posts.asp?TID=464&PID=2392#2392 Author: jcombs99

Hi Folks
    He was on Lettermans show the other day and told everyone he has throat cancer stage 4 .We don't know the whole story yet on what tests ect. ect .BUT this man has all kinds of money and the best doctors MAYBE around BUT that didn't help him .The doctors missed my HGD for 9 months they missed his cancer for months and HE KEPT TELLING THEM THERE"S SOMETHING WRONG ..I'm very sorry for him and there is a small chance he can beat this . Keep an eye on your doctors go to another if your don't like yours .

Bisphosphonates have a different active ingredient, zoledronic acid as opposed to strontium ranelate so I guess this research doesn't affect your medication.
However, if you have any concerns about your medicines you should discuss it with a pharmacist or your doctor.]]> Fri, 03 Sep 2010 14:20:51 +0000 http://www.barrettscampaign.org.uk/forum//forum_posts.asp?TID=463&PID=2391#2391 http://www.barrettscampaign.org.uk/forum//forum_posts.asp?TID=463&PID=2390#2390 Author: notlob54

I am supposed to take Protelos granules for osteoporis - strontium ranelate.  Do you know if this is a bisphosphate?  If so, I am not taking it.  There is enough risk now of cancer, because I have to have a yearly check up.  I am not going to have more risk than need be.  I think all medication has risks.]]> Fri, 03 Sep 2010 13:58:53 +0000 http://www.barrettscampaign.org.uk/forum//forum_posts.asp?TID=463&PID=2390#2390 http://www.barrettscampaign.org.uk/forum//forum_posts.asp?TID=463&PID=2389#2389 Author: chrisrob

Another news item regarding oesophageal cancer.
This time regarding the increased risks if you are taking clodronate, ibandronate, or receive pamidronate or zoledronic acid drip (bisphosphonates).
