Endoscopy and weird diagnosis

[mbranham0306 0]

I had an endoscopy today and was told I had gas pockets above my band which was causing all kinds of issues for me. I can't find anything online about this. Help!! I might know more about this if my doctor had told ME anything after the procedure. But no of course not, she only talked to my hubby and I love him very much but he really doesn't understand any medical stuff. He also said she didn't even give him time to ask questions and he only talked to her on the phone, she didn't even go out to talk to him after it was done!!

Anyway, anyone know anything about this??

Are you having symptoms?

Maybe she meant a hiatal hernia? Call the office in the AM and ask to speak to your doctor's nurse so you can know what is actually going on. Good luck!

I'm interested to hear what your symptoms are. I've never heard of that diagnosis before. What is the course of actions to fix the problem?

I have been throwing up almost everything I eat for a few months, even soft food. No heartburn, no acid reflux at all. I also have spurs on the vertebrae in my neck pushing against my esophagus. She gave me a script for Prilosec and was instructed to see her in 3 weeks. I've had lots of problems with this doctor (I've actually never met her yet....dealing with nurse practitioner). When the anaesthesiologist asked me questions he told me that I had acid reflux and I told him I didn't. He said this doctor had that down as what was wrong with me. I'm really confused.

I'd love to do that but I've had no luck getting the staff at this office to do anything! It took 3 weeks for them to even order my tests and then only because I went to the office and told them I needed it done asap because I couldn't eat anything without throwing up.
