Whenever I get nervous (not too nervous, though) or a bit uncomfortable I have a weird nervous laugh that sounds like a wheezing dog. It’s more like a continuous, guttural hum than an actual laugh. I sound like a malfunctioning car. This is what happens when I look up Barrett’s on Web M.D. Fuck. I didn’t know this is technically a “pre-cancerous” state. Even if the chance of cancer is like 1%. Also only one in ten with GERD develop Barrett’s, and it’s usually when they get to an older age. Stupid faulty esophageal sphincter.
