Stomach ()

Today I finally had an endoscopy. It turned up no ulcers. I'm still feeling ulcer pain though, so it's not just that my regimen of Zegerid and yogurt has cured it. So the next thing to get is an abdominal ultrasound.

Also, the anaesthetic didn't kick in quite quickly enough (they waited until the absolute last minute to administer it due to a bunch of schedule slip), so I remember most of the procedure, and gagging on the endoscope. Whee. It finally did kick in just as I was leaving the room, of course, so I had an hour of not remembering recovering.

At least an ultrasound isn't a stressful, invasive procedure. Sigh.

sucks that you have still to pinpoint what is causing you all the pain but that's good to know that no ulcers were found, right? hang in there...

Yeah. I had the ultrasound this morning, and the tech said I should hear back in a few days. She also said "good luck" which could be taken in any number of ways.
