the results are in ..

just got a call from my GI's office .. my biopsy results are in, and i have an appointment at 3:40 to go in and talk to the dr. im scared to death to hear what he has to say. At the same time im excited, anxious, worried, and everything else in between. im not looking forward to what's going to seem like the longest 3 hours of my life.

Don't ya just hate the waiting game??? Everyone says not to worry but we always do anyways. Could be news you need or want to hear... so let us know ASAP, cause we dont want to wait either lol.

i hate hate HATEEE the waiting game, and you'd think that after 5 months of waiting, whats another 2 or 3 hours right? lol ill keep you updated as soon as i know something!

The waiting is always hard! Try and distract yourself as much as possible and it will be time before you know it! Hope it goes well

UPDATE: the biopsy came back normal, however he found ulcers in my esophagus resulting from bad acid reflux. My GI is stumped as to what is causing the lump, pain, etc. So Thursday I get to do all of the bowel prep & clear liquid diet bullshit in preparation for Friday morning when they are going to have me swallow a pill that is actually a camera. It will take over 5000 pictures of my digestive system & I'll get the results fromthat the day before thanksgiving. Crohn's and IBS have sill not been ruled out.

More tests! Yay? At least they are investigating. I've never had the pill camera thingy but apparantl it is an interesting experience as you have all sorts of things strapped to you - don't go to the airport!!

Thats a shame you still dont have a conclusion yet. The camara pill will be interesting tho, not the prep obviously but I would rather do tht than the colonoscopy. Hope you are feeling well and good luck with the next procedure.

thanks everyone, i appreciate the support! im not looking forward to the prep either, but im not gunna lie - i think its really cool that there will be a camera traveling through me while i go about my day .. not to mention the fact that it will see every inch of intestine! ill let you guys know how it goes ..

Good luck with everything. I think I would rather do the pill than a colonoscopy too. Crazy all the ways they have now to look inside your body.

Good luck! What a long and tedious journey it can be sometimes!

Keep us posted!
