Blood test result etc..

Post by Lesley »

The results of the blood test for histamine were normal.

And this is the reply I got from him re: my other questions:
Since I have never done a upper endoscopy on you perhaps I should - performing biopsies per established Guidelines . Only Barrett's patients with low grade dysplasia need yearly or every 6 month surveillance. I am on leave and not currently available for appointments for another two weeks.

He's finally agreeing to establish the baseline for Barrett's.

I had a few days of a certain relief from the GERD pain, and thought it was coming under control. Unfortunately the last 2 days have proved me wrong. Pain on swallowing, all the way down, waking me up, pretty constant.
So I am glad he is taking it seriously.

I wonder if the increased pain over the last few days correlates with my horrible, horrible C?

A blockage can certainly promote GERD.

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.
