I went on the gluten challenge recently and only managed 3 and half weeks on it as got so debilitated. I'm waiting for the follow up after
the
gastroscopy
but I've become even more intolerant as a result. I've been glutened twice in 2 months and suffer a really bad backache immediately as well as the usual fatigue.

Info on PPI's anyone?
Hi all, Just come back from my "ultimate camera exprience" as I like to call it - colonoscopy and
gastroscopy
- and all seems well except for a minute polyp and, apparently, to much stomach acid!!!!!

General whinge as I'm in need of sympathy
So a month ago I had to have a
gastroscopy
and last Monday I had to have a colonoscopy (no they couldn't save everybody's time and effort and do them both at the same time - silly me for applying logic!). Oh dear, this had turned into a mimi rant - soz.

Drug Side Effects - Advice needed please - Adcal/Omeprazole
I had a
gastroscopy
and was told my oesophageal walls are very weak. I am taking 40mg omeprazole each day plus domperidone as well as my asthma drugs. I take adcal but have read in another post that adcal can cancel out omeprazole. Is there an alternative?

Hospital appointment this afternoon
When I saw my gastro cons at my follow up appt after the
gastroscopy
he said that there was no way the endo had damaged my throat & it sounded to him as my voice was so hoarse & has been for a month now, & I'm gradually losing it completely, that the prob lay with my voice box itself.

Naproxen Versus Tramadol
Had my follow up with the gen surgeon about my
gastroscopy
, & luckily the biopsies came back ok - phee ew! - but, he reckons that Tramadol is okay in his opinion - he thinks that Naproxen is the baddie.

CT scan of neck and chest - would I have been told there and then it it had of showed nodules?
I had a ct scan a week ago and I'm now getting a bit impatient, I'm having a
gastroscopy
in two weeks so I presume won't see the consultant until after that. Do you think that I would have been told if the CT scan showed nodules? I'm hypo on thyroxine for a couple of years.

Bit confused
I have been following the dieticians advice on low salt diet, stopped drinking (4 months now), had a
gastroscopy
which showed one barely visible varices which doesn't need treatment.

What is expected with a Gastroscopy? What is it?
The post has just arrived this morning together with a letter to make a date for my
Gastroscopy
. This is the first I have heard of this. Nothing was mentioned as such at the appointment. I need to find out exactly what it is. I have had lots of procedures in the past.

Colonoscopy and

Is this not a bit drastic?
Hi All, Has anyone on here been sent for a
Gastroscopy
AND a Colonoscopy because they are low in iron? Seems a bit OTT to me seeing as my GP ignored my blood results for well over a year.

Any tips on getting through a gastroscopy/OGD?
I have got my first one this week and I am scared! Has anyone got any tips or advice on how to get through this procedure or is it just a case of getting on with it? I am not too bad with being uncomfortable but my gag reflex is triggered so easily.

Hiatus Hernia
Had to go to my local hospital today for a
Gastroscopy
and flexible Sigmoidoscopy (joys of CD but at least my hospital is thorough) and they discovered I now have a Hiatus Hernia just to make my diet a little more complicated.

Looping Colon found during colonoscopy, but nothing else!
I had my colonoscopy and
gastroscopy
today having inexplicably losing 3 stones in weight. I had changed my diet due to bloating, diarrhea and pain. My GP suspected IBS but said the tests would clarify this. The result shows a looping colon and a hiatus hernia which apparently isn't an issue.

Anyone heard of Barrett's Oesophagus disease
So it seems that to go with my IBS diagnosis I have now had an
Gastroscopy
which diagnosed this Barrett's Oesophagus disease. Does anyone else have this? is there a diet to follow to reduce the discomfort? is this even the right place to ask a question about it?
