Question for those that Have Had a Scope done??

Mita · March 9, 2006

I had my scope done of December last year. Now before I had it done the only problem I had was the reflux. I was then able to drink coffee - hot chocolate. Eat whatever - considering I followed the band rules on my protions.

Now after having the scope I cannot really do the above. If I so much as take a couple of sips of Coffee or Hot chocolate It feels like it is sitting at the base of my esophugus. At first I thought I needed to heal, then I thought well maybe with the nexium I just cannot do that anymore. But I don't know..

What do you think? I was going to call and make an appt but again what can be done unless they go back in there and money wise I just do not have it.

Can you eat solids ok? I had a scope in DEC and the next morning I was drinking hot liquids easily and taking my Nexium. I can still drink hot liquids and still taking my Nexium.

Not sure what the problem might be but it doesn't sound like an emergency so getting another Scope might not be needed. Maybe just an xray would do it.

At any rate, you should call your doctor and let him or her know.

I can still eat and drink hot/cold it just seems like it comes back up before it goes down. Not an Emrg but it just bothers that it is not like before the scope. I will just call and let them know and maybe I can get an upper GI done. But that takes money as well. I guess if it ain't broke don't fix it..

Thank Penni
