i'm pretty sure they do that test on everyone i remeber doing it. they make you blow in a bag, drink something that taste like sour lemonade (actually kinda of tasty but hey i'm odd), then you sit for a few, then you blow in another bag. i forget if you aren't supposed to eat before hand but since i rarely eat in the morning and i had an early appointment it didn't matter.

I also can't make the milwaukee meetings. I would love to have a kenosha group here in kenosha. I have my first appt. With Dr. Chua on January 22, 2010... And Im very nervous... They just called me today to set up my first appt with Dr. Chua and they also are going to some type of test that will see if i got bacteria in my stomach that makes ulcers or something. I was wondering if anyone had this test done by Dr. Chua and how they do the test....

Dr Chua is every 3rd Wednesday from 6 to 8 pm. So next one coming up is Jan 20th. Contact Deanna she would be able to help you she runs the group. Kim gave you her email address. Its on 12th and State across from Aurora medical center. In the heart institute take it to the lower level. Hope to see you there. I am there most of the time.

I'm on the NW side of Milwaukee. I think I might check out both groups - Dr. Chau's & the one in Menomonee Falls, see what's shakin' :)

Thanks again everyone!
