Cheney diagnosed with swollen esophagus
VP’s mild case of esophagitis discovered during routine physical

Updated: 5:00 p.m. ET July 16, 2005
WASHINGTON - Vice President Dick Cheney suffers from a mild case of esophagitis and some dilation of the arteries behind both knees, his office said Saturday after he completed an annual physical.

Cheney, 64, was at George Washington University Hospital for a colonoscopy, an upper endoscopy and vascular screening. The procedures completed his yearly medical checkup.

In the first part of the exam last week, an annual heart checkup produced good news for Cheney, who has had four heart attacks, though none since he become vice president in 2001.

1. think heartless is puking in fear?
My favorite part of the article...

Esophagitis frequently occurs when acid-containing fluid flows from the stomach back into the esophagus. Other possible causes include excessive vomiting, surgery and some medications.

4. Actually acid reflux can also be caused by a bad case of nerves
....so the question needs to be asked of Dick Cheney: "What Mr. Vice President, do you have to be nervous about?"
