Gastroscopy date set...post VSG
Met with the specialist this morning, and I have a date already for my scope on February 1. Then after that test I have to return to hospital for a Gastro Emptying Test. In which, I will eat radioactive eggs and water, and wait around with a monitor on my stomach to see how fast or how slow the food and liquid leaves my stomach.
The doctor is leaning more towards the food not emptying fast enough, and since I have no sense of hunger, and just eat every 3 hours, he says that my food from before has not emptied, and I am putting more on top, and over filling. Solution: eat every 5 hours and see how that goes.
Nonetheless, I am going to find out soon what is going on so I can continue my journey in peace.
Thank you everyone for your support.
