Endoscopy--A Little Redness

[nancytole 4]

I had my upper endo today as part of my pre op testing. I asked how everything looked and they told me there was a little redness in my stomach but I have to wait a week for all my results. Does anyone know what it could be? I tried looking on line and came up with gastritis or H. Pylori. Has anyone had either of those pre op? What did you do? Did it effect your surgery in anyway?

Thanks!

I was told the same thing after my endoscopy when the doctor called with results. He told me not to worry and they did a biopsy anyways and I'm being sleeved on Monday. Good luck!

It's so funny how different doctors yield different results!

Yea he said that I would have been harder to heal from surgery and once I had surgery he would be able to see certain parts so he wanted most of it clear I'm still on nexium for 6months good luck to both of u
