Wish I could give you hugs IRL.... I'm so sorry anxiety_59. Know you are going through so much. Sorry don't have any ideas if health reasons. I have stomach issues (GERD & IBS), nothing near this. The endoscopy should tell them a lot... believe I had that done to check that the GERD hadn't caused damaged. The worrying about it was worse than the actual thing. Wore comfy clothes, yoga pants & a big roomy t-shirt, so got to keep them on (no hospital robe). Like everyone else don't understand the long wait... Sending love, prayers & a ton of hugs to you, your daughter & family. Love you & here for you sweetheart.

❤❤❤

PS. You are a great mom. No doubt😊

Thank you so very much! I love you!!!
