At your age and health it's probably something that can be fixed with medication or simple surgery. Don't assume the worst, but definitely get the treatment you need. I'm really sorry to hear of these difficulties but yes you want to get that esophagus taken care if. It can often repair itself, and they can also reconstruct a lot of it if you're young and healthy.

Sphincters can be repaired, hang in there. Let us know how it goes!

I had no idea that you'd had these problems. I'm hoping you'll be able to get it taken care of though because it sounds like things have already gotten serious. Good luck!
