BarbaraNebe 1 Posted August 27, 2012 Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is a test to examine the lining of the esophagus (the tube that connects your throat to your stomach), stomach, and first part of the small intestine. It is done with a small camera (flexible endoscope) that is inserted down the throat. Goggled to get the official definition above. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tishissweet 15 Posted August 27, 2012 9/4 here! liquid diet hasn't been too bad. My main issue is that my mouth tastes gross and I feel like my breath stinks. Then again, I'm not hungry because I take Adderall for my ADHD. I actually feel like I have to force it all down, so I just schedule it all in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
