Anyone had a Videofluroscopy?
My husband was referred to the hospital in November as staff at the hospice want him to have a PEG fitted. The specialist we saw said he wouldn't do it because of the risk involved and because my husband, "Certainly doesn't look malnourished". He has now been given an appointment for a video X-ray

High(ish) Calprotectin levels
Hello everyone, I'm a newbie on the Forum and would really appreciate your feedback I've had IBS for about 10 years and I'm 64. In February this year I saw a Gastroenterologist at my local Hospital. My G.P.had referred me several months previously as my bowels had become very loose. By the time I saw

Problems chewing food and swallowing
My husband had 3 trips to the ER from "aspiration pneumonia" which resulted in a barium swallow test, and swallowing strategies to help him swallow without choking. He should have addressed the chewing issues a year or so ago because he has lost 50 lbs from not wanting to eat. His doctors all noticed

Pouch causing coughing?
My husband has had a problem with bouts of severe coughing (to the point where he has difficulty breathing!), often brought on by eating dry food but also can happen at anytime. A consultant did a barium scan and said he had a slight pouch and a lazy epiglottis but hasn't recommended any treatment except

A tablet that might help someone with gas
Hi, after my experience of blockage/ twist what ever it was by my hernia back in March. No one seems to be able to give me a proper answer. I was left with bad pain in the left neck after eating, some pain in the bowel area, pins and needles down my left arm when I move. I had a ct scan just after, all

gastroscopy and dental damage
I've had an appointment made by my doctor for a gastroscopy because I've recently been suffering from acid reflux/heartburn. She had put me on lanzaprazole for a month which worked very well, however once prescription finished it has come back again. She is loathe to prescribe long term until it is

I have an answer to my problems - partially blocked bowel by a hernia.
Hi, just to follow on from my previous posts on blockage and A & E etc. After another ct scan, which was clear I then had a barium enema x ray and that was also clear. The bowel consultant said I have a insisional hernia which is partially blocking the bowel. This is causing the pain in my neck and shoulder

I've now seen a gastro consultant who thinks it's my stomach not working properly that makes me ill, not my herniated liver.
I've now got to have a test which is similar to a barium swallow to see if my stomach can empty properly. He thinks that this may be causing my symptoms! He's not sure if it is my liver. The consultants just won't refer me to a liver specialist!

Gastroscopy.
I took advice from members here and asked firmly for a better sedative. I had spent all night worrying, even developing an asthmatic cough because of the stress. The nurses were very kind, listened to my fears and past experiences and informed the doctor of how nervous and tearful I was. He gave me
