I'm sorry ur sick. I'm not a doc but I have been sick n nobody knew what was wrong. the docs decided take out my tonsils n everything went away I rarely ever get sick again Oh n mono does take a long time for it to clear up n get back to normal my sister in law has had it for a long time her first test was neg then she went to her doc n it came up positive but it's a rare form of mono take some vitamins and eat healthy as much as possible I hope this helps good luck
Samantha, what an awful story!! I'm so sorry you're having to go through all this.
I think it's not the slim jim. I think that was somehow coincidental with this happening to you, but since they did the barium test, there's nothing in there like a stuck slim jim that's causing you problems.
Prayers for you, and I truly hope you post back with updates.
I went to another ENT and they did more tests and they said that its the muscles in my neck. They said the muscles are tight and that they want to do therapy with me to help relax the muscles.
