Barium swallow tomorrow

[tubs73 2]

Hi everyone having a barium swallow tomorrow afternoon , to see what's wrong and why I've lost all my restriction since third fill. Does anyone know if I will find out straight away or will they send a report back to the hospital group ??? Thanks in advance .

They will send your images to a radiologist who will send it to your doc

If they are using a flouroscopy machine, they should be able to see right away. Follow my lap band blog www.biscuitsandexcuses.blogspot.com

i think it depends. Usually they dont want to say anything and send it to dr. However when my wife went they gave her the images walking out the door and told her all was well. I wish you the best!!!!

In my experience, you can see it while they are doing the fluoroscopy. My doc uses it WHILE ADJUSTING THE BAND....hopefully, your's will too.

All looks well it was really interesting with a great explanation. The radiographer measured my present fill and I had lost approx 1 ml again . I drunk the liquid and it showed I had no restriction . He then topped me up to 8 ml and did another X-ray with the liguid still no restriction. Topped me up to just over 9 and It showed good restriction . My port band band and position all show to be correct with no obvious leaks . He was really nice and said he can't rule out a small leak that the X-ray just isn't picking up as I keep losing a ml every time . I'm back at the hospital group any way for a fill on Monday so I will ask her to measure my Fluid again hopefully it will all be there but if not then I have a small leak ! Staying hopeful though !!!! Thanks everyone :0)
