i had a eshopgal dilation 28 hours ago . After surgery I had chest pain and coughed up a little blood. Doctor wasn't concerened as he said it could be a few days before espoghas was back to normal. didn't know why blood was there. had a 100 degree fever that went away after 8hrs. No signs of bleeding today, chest discomfort almost gone and normal temperature. What are chances I had or still have Perforated esophagus? Thank you.
