Summary

This study follows 30 people with achalasia (a swallowing disorder) for one year after they receive treatment. Researchers want to see if the weight gain that often happens after treatment leads to worse metabolic health, like fatty liver or higher blood sugar. Participants will have blood tests and a liver scan at the start and one year later.
