Daisy can you tell me what exactly is an upper GI? I recently went to see a GI specialist due to excessive mucus, gagging and heaving every morning when I awake and am about to rinse my mouth/brush teeth etc. He said nothing about doing an upper GI. He told me I might need invasive testing like being wired for 4 days (at home) through my nose to esophagus or having clips attached to my esophagus!! I went out of there very concerned and afraid. He made no mention of an upper GI.

An upper GI is where they have you drink contrast solution and they watch it go down on an x ray type machine.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
