First Capsule Endoscopy

I got there at 6:30am, swallowed the pillcam at 8:10am with 0.6g simethicone, was fitted with patches, records for 8 hours so it will end around 3:30-4pm.

I have a paper to note “eating, drinking, and unusual sensations.” I am feeling a lot of pain in general, so, I am a bit nervous for what qualifies as “unusual” and should be noted?

I’m hoping for good results.

Hello PastelPink

If the pain has come on since swallowing the pillcam then yes, it counts as an unusual sensation.
