About Snaggybird

Hi So today I had an Endoscopy. From referal to completion today I waited 2 weeks. This is due also to a weight loss of 3.5St in a matter of months. I had an ultrasound scan of my liver a few weeks ago which showed a 1cm mass. I then had a CT scan 3 weeks ago to look closer at it. The results of the CT scan came back yesterday and it appears the mass has vanished?? but I now have an MRI on the Liver in 3 months time to monitor it. Today I had my endoscopy, Sedated, and felt everything. I had 10 Biopsies taken?? The report stated I had a lot of bile in the stomach, the word Gastris? was also mentioned. The lining of the stomach was very red? I had Upper Oesophagus 4 x Random biopsies? Lower Oesophagus 1 x Biopsy? This was described as a nodule? Site C Stomach?2 random biopsys? side D 3 Biopsys I think these maybe for Ceoliac Diagnosis OESOPHAGUS Tiny Nodule at GOJ STOMACH Non erosive Gastritis DUODENUM Normal Advice/comments Excess bile in stomach with mild hastritis Esophageal biopsies to exclude esinophilic esophagitis Does this make any sense to anyone, I'm still suffering from the effects of the sedation If anyone has had any shared experiences then I would love to hear how you got on. Thanks for reading
