Interesting site and a lot of useful info.  For instance, I did not  know 
there were so may types of esophageal abnormalities and I also did not  know 
that 
Bloat can be a symptom of mega.  From the  site:



Hi,
 
I just found this site yesterday.  I was researching it as we just had  a 
Mega pup. Her prognosis was very poor, but I couldn't put her down.  Two  
things 
bothered me about her.  She made a clicking noise and my vet said he  never 
heard of a clicking noise being associated with mega and sometimes when  she 
ate, she looked like she was bloating.  Not bad, but enough to make  you 
notice.  
I brought her home but unfortunelty had to put her down a  few weeks ago.  
She went into a full fledge bloat.  I have never seen  a dog/puppy bloat 
before, 
but when the stomach is 3 times the normal size, you  know what it is.  I had 
no idea bloat could be associated with a Mega  Pup.  I sent this website to 
my vet, as if you look at the symptoms on the  website that can be associated 
with Mega is a clicking noise when moving.   Now at least I know that this does 
happen.  Mega is an awful fate to happen  to any puppy or dog.  There is no 
cure, no surgery.  Just misery for  the dog and the people. Someday hopefully 
there will be some type of surgery to  help these poor babies.
