I was having a problem with everything I would eat or drink I would throw it right back up because I was in so much pain.  It felt like I had been kicked in the tummy every time.
My doctor thought it was an ulcer and I came to find out that they are common.  They form from where your pouch was reconnected to your small intestine.  They can repair it and you will be just fine.

Mine didn't turn out to be an ulcer just terrible acid reflux, so now I have to take Prilosec every day but it has really helped me so much.

I hope for you that it all goes well.  Also the GI scope is so easy - I was super nervous about it but it really took 5 minutes, it took longer to check in, think positive it will all work out.

Mhalverson85, I am not having any problems that I have noticed. Well the doctor that done my colonscopy also done the GI scope he said that the ulcer is in my small intestine.
