  10. An EGD is endoscope is a long, flexible tube about the size of your little finger. During the procedure, you are sedated and the EGD scope is passed through the mouth and back of the throat into the upper digestive tract, allowing the physician to examine the lining of the esophagus, stomach and duodenum (the first portion of the small intestine). My doctor, Dr. Kim told me I had to get this done before surgery.
  11. Thank you all for the encouragement & reassuring me I can do this. I'm going to stay focus from now on.
  12. I am mad at myself, I cheated & on the 5th day I still have 10 days left before my surgery grrrr. I'm so stupid.
