Upper GI not so bad!!!

[soocalchic 1,087]

I had my upper GI done yesterday and i must say it wasnt that bad. Drinking down that yummy flavored barium wasnt as bad as i though it was going to be. It was funny really the doctor gave me 2 little cups one with the little gas fizzy pellets and one with some liquid. I joked with him are these "SHOTS" he giggled and said drink up. after that went down they had me stand in front of the flouroscope and drink down the barium he said just chug this down as fast as you can. So I did. they tilted the bed and had me lay down. Now this is were it gets strange the doc had me lay on my side and he grabbed a hold of my hip and rocked me back and forth to get the barium to coat all my tummy. OMG i couldnt stop laughing. It was like the tickel button had been pushed i apologized for the laughter but i just couldnt stop. I finally stoped giggling and they took some more shots while i was positioned on my sides. They also asked me to bear on down while i held my breath this was not terrible either. It was all done and over in about 15 mins start to finish.
