Hopefully one last test!

I have one last test on the 31st. It is an upper endoscopy. This is what webmd says about it.Upper endoscopy, also called esophagogastroduodenoscopy, or EGD, uses a thin scope with a light and camera at its tip to look inside of the upper digestive tract -- the esophagus, stomach and first part of the small intestine, called the duodenum. I will be knocked out for this. All that is left is another blood drawn and we should be good to go.

upper endoscopes are not bad.....the stuff they gave to "relax" and knock me out was great. one minute i was in the room with the medical people the next thing i remember i am at ben and jerry's trying to pick out what kind of ice cream i want (and i do not remember eating the ice cream or much else for that fact until the next morning).

I had an endoscopy a few years ago. Amazing drug...they mess with your short term memory. I was confused until about 6 pm.
