Found polypoid lesion during EGD



Recommended Posts

I am home from my Colonoscopy and EGD procedure. The EGD was done because of my upcoming lapband surgery. During the EDG the surgeon found a polypoid lesion which is being sent for a biopsy which the surgeon did not think was a big deal. He just said that it was unusual to find one there. I glad I had this procedure and had it is removed. This lesion may have caused a problem with the band later or even worse become cancerous in the future. I will update after I get the results of the biopsy.

Gee- Is this the same thing as a polyp? If so they are usually sent for analysis, but return to be ok. Try not to worry too much.

Yeah where was it :confused:

I'll be praying that everything is ok for you.

Not sure at this time. I thought the Doc said in the esophagus but the paper work stated at the stomach antrum? Will talk to him tomorrow.

Not sure about the Polyp. I did some research but now all I have is more questions. Thanks for the prayers. I'm sure that it will turn out OK. Talk to you on Sunday. Barbara

      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!
