I had my endoscopy this morning.
It showed that the ulcer has healed, but there's a patch of Barrett's Oesophagus, so a couple of biopsies have been sent to the histology lab to see if they're important or interesting.
The hiatus hernia hasn't changed.
So that's pretty good news.

However, the sedation that didn't affect me last time has completely clobbered me.
There's bits of the procedure I can't remember, and I've been asleep pretty much since I had some food & drink when we got home.

I feel really rather spaced out!

Hey friends, who knows what day it is?

IT'S #GASTROSCOPY DAY!

It's that magical day, you get to fast, then be put under, and have a camera shoved down your throat!

Oh wait, that's not everybody, that's just me?

Oh.

I'm so happy now. All the medical tests and exams are done now and I'm healthy. I will finally get the iron infusion (in two weeks) and when my elixir of life levels are up, I can start to exercise again. Three major surgeries were the only reason for my anemia. I was very scared of today's exam but I did great. I'm very proud of myself πŸ€— #today #gastroscopy #hospital
