Endoscopy Results



Recommended Posts

:( I dont know what it all means hopefully it all ads up to GERD, abnormal motility in esophagus, cricopharyngeus abnormal. mild stricture, and LAgrade A esophagitis...candidasis in espohagus and my hiatal hernia... I tried to read up on most of it, alot is with the gerd., but i dont know enough to know if I will still qual for surgery.--depressed, and wondering, if I will ever get there. Surgeons visit Oct 4, he should have radiology findings by then. ;) its gonna be a long week.

I got copies of all my stuff -not radiology report, and I tried to google it all. My surgeon will get the final results 3/5 days after radiology. If all looks pink they might just tell u your OK. I have issues. but today I am more "with-it" and the candida is being fixed by a pill- one a day for 2 weeks. , I think this came from a very bad sinus infection and i got some heavy antibiotics, and i think the rest of what he wrote is some damage by GERD,,, JUST another reason to have surgery. The radiologist will test for cancer etc, but the last endoscopy nothing like that came up. I think all will be well, but glad they found this yeast infection cause it can become a major issue in time. so thank you God for the bump on the road!! Are you just having a routine endoscopy?

Keep us all posted. The Lap Band should help with the GERD, if you do things right.

I will hopefully know Tuesday what the 2 Drs have to say.. Please Lord let it be Ok do do surgery. I know my hernia will be repaired and this is big issue with my GERD- I just hope it is NOT too late and I'm damaged on the inside. The Gastro guy only said- gotta wait on radiology... so next week.. trying to stay positive and I'm bit loopy from meds for the candida. so hopefully it will go fast... I'm praying :( I hope this candida will not stop it either, from what I read the pills should kill it. I will post next Tue to whats happens..

I has told I also have GERD and the doc also took a couple samples for biopsie and everything turned out fine. I was just put on Protonix for the GERD. He approved be for banding and I just have to see him every few months for the GERD. Don't worry everything should be okay, I'm sure your doctor will give you the okay ! Good Luck & think positive thoughts!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
