Upper Endo Results

[Guest guest]

Well not sure how that went. But they took some biopsies said he

doesnt see anything major from the GERD but there is a Z-Line

irregular with gastric mucosal abnormality characterized by

erythema. So I guess I will have to wait for the results.

Gosh I was so EXPECTING for them to tell me this is the problem to

all my issues and it would be over. So I guess I cant blame the

shortness of breath and all that on GERD, now what?

I found out how to say what that breathing/taste is I have. If you

ever been to a bar being a smoker or even non-smoker and around

smokers in that kind of scene. Well if you were a smoker and you

smoked way to much that night you would feel this heavyness in your

chest and your throat like you smoked way to much. Thats what mine

feels like!
