Hello, I had a
gastroscopy
on the 27th June, they said my duodenum looked atrophied, and took biopsies. Does anyone know how long is usual to wait for results? I'm thinking on phoning the gastroenterologist, but don't want to be too impatient!! I am in Kent. Thanks for your help x

I was referred for a
gastroscopy
which showed the duodenum as being slightly atrophic looking and they have taken biopsies. This is where I am at now, the waiting game. I am guessing I have coeliac from the atrophy seen, so have been *trying* to go gluten free (if anything in preparation).

Hypothyroidism?
The doctor suggested that maybe I might have a hiatal hernia, or perhaps a stomach infection (I should be having a
gastroscopy
soon to check for this), but to be honest my abdominal symptoms have subsided a lot, and I now have new problems.

B12 testing
Went to private practice and doctor agreed that I should be taking sublinguals as my levels are not alarming enough to get me
gastroscopy
, that is the only way to confirm PA over here. But he said that the reference range is low so it makes it look like I am good.

Gastroscopy results
I had the
gastroscopy
as my endo couldn't see any reason for my very low Iron, folate and ferritin and thought I might have a gastric ulcer. There was no sign of one but biopsies of the Lipoma were taken. Barb

My Ovarian Cancer Journey
I visited my G.P who referred me to the ENT department to have a
Gastroscopy
to have a look at my stomach and everything else inside. Once this was done results showed everything was fine.

Ovarian Cyst
I was sent to have a
gastroscopy
to check for bleeding from the stomach, results were normal. I then saw a gastroenterologist ( a registrar) at the hospital on while she was examining me, she told me that she could feel my liver, which she shouldn't have been able too.

Undiagnosed Health Problems
I’ve had health problems for about 6-7 years and around three years ago I was sent for a lot of tests, including a
gastroscopy
and colonoscopy, to identify why I was having problems with vertigo, nausea, constant migraines, and fainting spells.

Positive parietal cell antibody
Six years ago following a
gastroscopy
(due to feeling sick a lot of the time) I was told I had H-pylori and given a course of antibiotics to take, but this was never followed up to see if it had been cured.

PA related Gastric issues?
Today I had a
gastroscopy
which showed a 'tiny hiatal hernia' and 'fundic gland polyps'. Doc also took biopsy to 'rule out autoimmune gastritis'. He said on the sheet he found 'nothing of concern' but when I started googling, I got concerned.

Something Else to put up with
I have enough problems in that area so have decided to wait until I have had my
gastroscopy
in January and have requested an appointment with my Rheumatologist in January also so that I can discuss this with him.

Still frustrated after Gadtroscope
After vomiting black tar and passing it in the Summer I was given an emergency
Gastroscopy
which found I had lots of polyps. For months all I could eat was yogurt and Ready Break.

Confused - can I still have coeliacs
I had a positive blood test for coeliacs at the end of October and I had a
gastroscopy
today. The report says that my upper GI tract looks normal and 4 biopsies were taken. If I have coeliacs would my GI look abnormal before the biopsies are taken.

Stomach ulcers
Today I underwent a
Gastroscopy
and was given the results. Apparently I have erosions and patchy erythema (red inflamed blotches I believe) throughout the stomach, Duodenitis and 4 ulcers. I was tested for H pylori which came back negative. I also had 7 biopsies.
