Endo yesterday- advice needed

[ForeverHealthy 22]

Help....had my endoscopy yesterday and I have had waves of nausea accompanied by burning pain in my stomach. Doc removed several polyps found. When does this go away, and is this normal?

Thanks in advance!

I would call the doctor. I had mine last week and didn't experience anything other than drowsiness for the rest of the day from the sedative. Had the procedure in the morning and ate a normal dinner that night

Thanks....did they remove anything with yours?

No. Did a couple of biopsies. I haven't heard of them removing anything in an endoscopy

Generally when polyps are removed they are submitted to biopsies. "Polyps are abnormal growths of tissue that can be found in any organ that has blood vessels. They are most often found in the colon, nose, or uterus. Most polyps are noncancerous (benign). However, because polyps are due to abnormal cell growth, they can eventually become cancerous (malignant). Whether or not a polyp is cancerous can be determined with a biopsy." So I suspect that you had some polyps removed during the endoscopy.

Not removed....just biopsied.
