Just Had A Egd/biopsy

[sherie]

I'm wondering how everyone felt after their biopsy. I have had trouble sleeping and staying asleep. I have a feeling they gave me something to counter act the meds they gave me during the procedure and that is keeping me from getting a good sleep. I am very sensative to meds. Also my stomache was hurting and feeling bloated last night even though I felt fine when I left the hospital. I didn't have this discomfort until around 11pm at night. Better today but feeling bloated and a little acky tonight. Could just be what I'm eating because I'm not gluten free yet. I won't have the results until the 25th. Also the doctor had blood drawn to check for pernicious(sp?) anemia. They had a lot of trouble getting a good vein both for the IV and for drawing blood so my hands are all bruised up ;o( Anyway I just wanted to hear of other's experiences with the biopsy.

I hope you are feeling better today. It does take some time for all the drugs to get out of your system. I had an extreme reaction to the drugs they gave me for mine so I also felt really bad and won't go into that but for you I think today you will feel much better. You can now go gluten-free, you have had the endo so now is the time to start the diet. You may know the answer by how you feel before you go back to find out the results.

If you are feeling worse today though do be sure to contact the doctor and let them know. Rarely some folks (like me) will have an adverse reaction to Versed, the drug they usually use, so if you should have any 'unusual' effects, like extreme depression be sure to let the doctor know.

You have come to a good place for info and support. Please feel free to ask any question you need to and or vent if needed.
