Anyone Look At Their Sleeve Via X-Ray?

I'm so curious to see what my stomach looks like now. I'm considering getting an X-Ray to see it (would that work?). Any ever view their sleeve somehow?

Yeah. While I was in the hospital, I did a barium swallow to check for leaks and I could see the picture. It looked odd but very small.

I watched my barium swallow in the hospital. It is almost a < shape now. It is tiiiiiiiny...

I saw mine in the hospital at a leak test. It's long and skinny.

I seen mine when I got my leak test, I was so high from the pain meds I dont really remember what it looked like lol

I saw mine during the final leak year as well. I expected to see a banana shape but it looked more like an intestine. Not as attractive as I expected. Ha!

I did a barium test but I nevernsaw it I was so jacked on morphine... I want an Xray too! I was just talking about this last night! I'm going to request one for my 1 month post op ( I'm 12 days in )

Would it show in an x-ray without taking drinking some kind of radioactive liquid?

I actually have a DVD of mine, So I swallowed the barium and it shows it going in, in motion! It's pretty cool.
