Hi @Budgie, Quick update, anxiety got the better of me and I almost begged my GP to give me a referral. I saw the specialist earlier this week. I had my endoscopy done today and it was reflux oesophagitis (mild) . I have been asked to see the specialist again in 2-4 weeks and to continue to take my medication till then. All this while I continued to be reminded of your support. Thank you once again and I really hope all goes well with you.. Regards, TS ... View more

Hi Budgie, There was nothing abnormal in the ultrasound, everything seems normal in the blood results too. I have been given some PPI to stop with the burning. He does not feel that there is anything to worry about at this stage. He has asked that I wait for two weeks and will then refer me to a specialist, if things don't improve. Fingers crossed it will improve by then :). it has been really nice to have your support all this while. Thank you very much! ... View more

Hi Budgie,   I have just had my scan, feel much better than yesterday as the sonographer scanned the upper abdomen and said "so far so good". I dont have images of the stomach though. Though I feel better, I am a bit worried that the ultrasound might not have caught the problem.    Will let you know how I go tomorrow as well.   Thanks again, TS228 ... View more

@Budgie Your words of support mean a lot. I have been having the symptoms for about 10-15 days and they are only increasing. I have moved my ultrasound tomorrow, so that I can hopefully spend some time less anxious. Real feel better after reading your post. Will let you know how I go.. TS ... View more
