Guest guest Posted October 29, 2002 Report Share Posted October 29, 2002 Doc finally decided maybe I should have an upper g.i. since I can eat so much. I have always heard on these boards that scope is better than u.g.i. I asked him if they can see with a u.g.i. whether my stoma is stretched and he said yes. I tho't that was not the case and u need 2b scoped 2c that. Anyone have any good info for me on this, please? Thanx, Carol A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 We could tell by watching my upper GI how large the stoma was. You can't get a precise measurement, but as you watch the liquid, you can see how big the opening is relative to everything else. in Austin RNY April 1998 scope vs upper g.i. > Doc finally decided maybe I should have an upper g.i. since I can eat so > much.
