Funny Story
When I read mrsmike’s post today, I decided to share a funny story with all of you. Quite a while ago, months ago, I was having terrible bowel problems, still having them. But I never shared this ridiculous story with you all. I saw a specialist and he ordered a test called a defogram. I had to go to

Normal result endoscopy
I had my endoscopy done yesterday and boy I did not like that uncomfortable feeling of throwing up,any way it turned out normal...the main reason I had this test was because of persistent pain while swallowing some types of food eg potatoes ,avocados ,bananas too....the pain gets worse when I get hungry

How I got here
Last year I had a pretty horrific midriff hernia repair and reconstruction from which it took months to recover. I had a ct scan done at that time and a couple of small nodules were found on my right lung. No one seemed concerned and I was told I would have a followup scan this summer. In the meantime

lower platelets caused by stomach issues?
Doc thinks my low platelets are caused by my stomach issues however I shared this with the x ray tech when I got my upper GI today and by the look on his face he was thinking no. Results were posted today and I didn't get a call from my primary so I'm guessing I didn't have any bad stuff pop up or anything

Palpatations and eating
Whilst my AF is at bay and long may that situation last, I am now having runs of fast heart rate whilst and after eating. This lasts for about the first hour then everything settles down again. I have had a barium swallow recently and am having a brain scan as the Gastroenterologist I saw recently

Has anyone tried home remedies to help with IBS-C..such as Apple Cider Vinegar, Blackstrap Mollasses, etc? Anything better than Laxatives?
So tired of medication that doesn't work. Can't be on toilet all day cramping because I have mandatory groups. Tired of Linzess and loose stools. Fiber does nothing. Have gone to every Doctor and Gastro..just had Upper GI, and lower Bowel Follow through with Barium Swallow. Everything fine. Colonoscopy

Chronic side stitch
I am a 30 year old female. For 10 + years, every time I run, I get a side stitch within a few minutes and it’s so bad I can’t continue running. This even happens when walking sometimes, biking, skating, using elliptical, etc. It’s usually on the right side under the ribs, but sometimes other spots in

Post op cough after Ivor Lewis
Hi, My Mum had her Ivor Lewis in Nov 2017, since then she has had an horrendous cough, especially when talking and eating? The upper GI specialist nurse said it seems it is a reflux cough? She is due to have a stretch in two weeks. After having a barium swallow, it showed things were moving slow through

Oh joy...
49, just got diagnosed last Wednesday. Go for Bone scan and CT tomorrow. Gleason 8/10. PSA was a 5.4 two months ago, 6.7 now. Of course worried about the whole bone thing. Not looking forward to drinking the barium (vanilla, what a joke) tomorrow (so gross). I'm kind of addicted to this whole breathing

Post Ivor Lewis Mucus
Hi, I’m really hoping someone can help me find a solution to the excessive mucus that causes coughing and then retching it up every time my husband moves around. He’s 5 weeks post Ivor Lewis...which followed 28 radiation treatments & 7 carbon platin infusions. Surgeon says everything looks great on chest
