Lately I've been feeling pain when eating or swallowing anything. I was sleeved 09/19, had my gallbladder removed 10/08 and then caught a nasty bug. I have been through the ringer! At first I thought it was something I ate because I was able to transition to normal foods just fine. It just seemed to change overnight. I started vomiting everything I ate or drank. I assumed I just got swollen from the retching so I went to liquids. Well, I can't really tolerate that either. This sucks. I feel ok in every other aspect. My incisions are fine and I've lost a decent amount of weight. My Dr. wants me to have the upper Endoscopy to look for ulcers or anything wrong. I am wondering if I should have a contrast as well. Any ideas on this?

You will not need contrast with an endoscopy, they drug you up with versed and fentanyl and spray your throat with numbing stuff so you don't gag and run a little camera down to your stomach and search around. They can take samples or look for any problems while they are down there! It's painless and a breeze. Good luck !!
