Endoscopy is the general term for pushing a tube with camera and a light from either direction. A gastroscopy is the term for an exploration down the gullet.

I shoud know as I've had both, a 'top and tail' they called it. First one end then they turn you round and do the other end. I assume they give the tube a wipe down between.  eeek:

I was trying to keep it simple for the faint/light hearted among us.
I too have had both .... do you really want to know what they found.  noooo:

Shit at one end I should imagine, and your last meal at the other. Anything else and you're in trouble!

(Though if it were Nick, then the odd toad and dead badger would not be too surprising!)
"Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end." 

Well, someone had to say it!

At the top end some very nasty bugs ~ not Hiatus Hernia but might as well have been ..... similar drug treatment for rest of natural. sick2:
At bottom end 5 Poyps in the bowel that had to be removed. Fortunately none was cancerous (Anxious wait for biopsy result) but I have to be rechecked every five years as I am now deemed "at risk". scared2:

Well you did ask.  point:

Oh and I have been to the cardio difib clinic this afternoon and my magic box is working well. All downloaded and AOK so that's that for another three months. Only the Cardio and Diabetes clinic next Friday and if that checks out I'll feel a bit happier.
 I await an appointment with the spine specialist and the ENT man. The former for back problems (obviously) and the ENT to see if he/she can do anything about my tinnitus.

Christ I hate getting old!!!

Too much information!

You always say that! evil:
What's the point of being ill and not telling people about it? Huh?
I can't wait to start telling people how old I am ..... what is the correct age to start that?
I know that one is age sensitive up to about 19 then it doesn't seem to matter until you get to the upper seventies when it seems de rigeur  to say things like "I'm 85 you know" to all and sundry and for no apparent reason. I just want to be ready before they start saying "who is that old fool sitting in the corner dribbling down his shirt front".

OH! redface:

B@st@rds!!!

Similar to me. Although I do have a hiatus hernia for which I take lansoprazole.

The polyps are a worry, hope they don't find any this time.  scared2:
