Amylou 206 Posted August 20, 2015 I've had an upper GI and an endoscopy - not related to WLS pre-op. In both cases, the anticipation was way worse than the procedures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GBLady41 393 Posted August 20, 2015 I've had an EGD diagnostic and a Nuclear Hepatobiliary Scan with Gallbladder Ejection Fraction (HIDA Scan). The EGD went fine. They put you out for the procedure. The HIDA Scan just takes a while to complete. There's nothing to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
