They found mild gastritis on mine. My surgeon said everything else looked good.

Did they do an ultra sound as well?

I have to go back Friday for ultrasound

No they didn’t. Did they say what the ultrasound is for? Gallbladder?

Probably gall bladder but also to determine the general shape of your stomach. Most people's don't vary that much, but it's always good to know. See the EGD tells the inner anatomy,of your digestive system, this would alert,them if you're built a little differently. God made each of us a little differently, he didn't just,pour us into a mold and let us harden there.😛 Peace- Joy- and Love Everyone!

Found my Fundoplication has come undone, my hiatal hernia is worse & my esophagus is L shaped now & that’s why food is getting stuck when I eat! So even though my BMI is 35 I had a medical reason to have a bypass. Once they go in there they saw that 1/2 of my stomach was involved in the hernia!

I was told it was a mass but it didn’t think it was cancerous I got a call yesterday they still need further testing with the ultrasound

Yay! I've been checking your thread hoping for the best. It's always so nerve-wracking when they come back and say "we need to do more testing" etc. So glad you're in the clear! Less than a month to surgery :D

Wow, that is always a scary situation!! Glad all is well!!

For me they found the hernia I had been complaining about for over a year and kept getting told I don't have one! I finally accepted I was crazy and didn't know what I was talking about then Lo and Behold I'm actually not crazy at all and do have one! 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
