Hi/Gastro update

Hey Guys!! How is everyone? Im behind as usual,still not feeln so well... I seen the Gastro doc last week and he has ordered a bunch of tests.I go tomorrow for a Upper GI series test,and the 17th I have a Gastric Emptying test and then the 30th I have a Endoscopy.. He is concernedabout my Autonomic disease so he is going to try and do the endoscopy without anastesia first.Well,he will spray and numb my throat areaand try that way 1st then if it dosnt work out he will have to give the regular anastesia,and will biopsy inside my stomach.He is going to check forCeliacs,chrohns, inflammation, infection, etc...Pretty much everything.. He said it could be possible it is the autonomic disease since it can effecteverywere in my body but he said I may have something on top of that and possibly even 2 things going on...So,time and tests will tell.I am stilltaking the

Reglan,bentyl and Prilosec and it is still helping.I havnt been vomiting like before so that is good.:)I will let you all know how it goes,anyone here ever have an upper gi series? I know the 2nd part i will have to drink a barium liquid but im notsure about the 1st part of the test.Anyone know?Does it involve tubes or anything? Well.other then all this my days are still pretty tough and thats why I dont get online much...The jerking of my body is getting worse,im prettysure it is dystonia and my body contines to make abnormal movements and horrible cramping.Also now I feel under my skin a weird movement andyou can see it,itlooks like a wave or snake under the skin,I believe its fasculations. (sp?) I see the diagnostic doc at ucd in october so am tryingto get through till then,Well,this seem s to be all my hand s csan type for now,they are freezing up right along with everything else.Lots more tosay but guess itl have to

wait.I read some posts as much as i can jus can hardly write back.luv you all and hope you all are wellhugzcassy
