Pray for a scope this week

So they have done gastrografin test and barium tablet. The tablet test showed what they think is a stricture. My pee was brown and they think I have a UTI as well. So they are starting antibiotics and I'm on fluids as well.

They are admitting me probably for the night. They are looking at doing the EGD in the morning to correct the stricture.

I don't want to stay but I am glad they are going to fix me!

Thank goodness!! I was hoping they would get to the bottom of this for you.

So glad you have an answer!

Glad to hear that they are finally doing something about it. I just had my stricture dilated this morning and have a follow-up EDG in two weeks to see progress. Clear liquid diet for two days. Annoyed but at least I may be out of the woods for now.

Just got back to my room from EGD. They did find a stricture and dilated it. So happy to know I'll get better. Hoping to go home today.

Thank you everyone for your support!

So happy that all of you are finally getting relief!

Glad to hear you were finally able to get the EGD. Hopefully you've found some relief now.

They are keeping me again overnight. They are going to move me from liquids ( which I'm on at the moment) to purée/ soft foods and see how I do before they let me go. Just making sure the EGD was successful or if I need another dilation.

I'm glad they are really making sure I'm good.

So glad yore doing better....any idea why they wouldn't look until you were 6 weeks out??? Seems kinda cruel and unusual and risky?

I'm thinking they wanted to make sure it wasn't just swelling or usual nausea. I knew something was wrong but I guess they hear that a lot? Not sure but I was miserable.

I'm glad you finally got the treatment you needed. You'll be feeling better soon.

Off IV fluids as of this morning and they said I can go home this afternoon.

Ate breakfast! Real food! Grits, eggs, and toast. I finished most of it. I kept waiting for it to hurt and it never did. I'm so relieved that I can eat again.

Just took a shower and it felt wonderful!
