Endoscopy Results



Recommended Posts

:( I dont know what it all means hopefully it all ads up to GERD, abnormal motility in esophagus, cricopharyngeus abnormal. mild stricture, and LAgrade A esophagitis...candidasis in espohagus and my hiatal hernia... I tried to read up on most of it, alot is with the gerd., but i dont know enough to know if I will still qual for surgery.--depressed, and wondering, if I will ever get there. Surgeons visit Oct 4, he should have radiology findings by then. ;) its gonna be a long week.

I got copies of all my stuff -not radiology report, and I tried to google it all. My surgeon will get the final results 3/5 days after radiology. If all looks pink they might just tell u your OK. I have issues. but today I am more "with-it" and the candida is being fixed by a pill- one a day for 2 weeks. , I think this came from a very bad sinus infection and i got some heavy antibiotics, and i think the rest of what he wrote is some damage by GERD,,, JUST another reason to have surgery. The radiologist will test for cancer etc, but the last endoscopy nothing like that came up. I think all will be well, but glad they found this yeast infection cause it can become a major issue in time. so thank you God for the bump on the road!! Are you just having a routine endoscopy?

Keep us all posted. The Lap Band should help with the GERD, if you do things right.

I will hopefully know Tuesday what the 2 Drs have to say.. Please Lord let it be Ok do do surgery. I know my hernia will be repaired and this is big issue with my GERD- I just hope it is NOT too late and I'm damaged on the inside. The Gastro guy only said- gotta wait on radiology... so next week.. trying to stay positive and I'm bit loopy from meds for the candida. so hopefully it will go fast... I'm praying :( I hope this candida will not stop it either, from what I read the pills should kill it. I will post next Tue to whats happens..

I has told I also have GERD and the doc also took a couple samples for biopsie and everything turned out fine. I was just put on Protonix for the GERD. He approved be for banding and I just have to see him every few months for the GERD. Don't worry everything should be okay, I'm sure your doctor will give you the okay ! Good Luck & think positive thoughts!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
