I finally got into see the new gi, through a cancellation that somebody had :)

I saw a gi on tuesday, and he seemed very concerned by the bleeding that I am having in my stool.

He did say that he thinks its definitly something to with my colon, however, he did examine me as well, and found that my liver was very sore, atleast he was pressing on it, and I was in excruciating pain. So then, he said he wanted to run some blood work on me, and all the blood work that he ran had to do with my liver, so not really sure whats going on there, I am a little scared and worried.

On a better note, he is also doing two scopes, one down the esophagus and one up the rectum. I will be sedated thank God, and on his sheet that I gave to the nurse, it also said a possible polypectomy.

So i was to be sceduled for the scopes on august 20th lol, but it just so happens that I got in for 11:45 monday morning, so I should hopefully know by then,what is if anything going on with m system.

All I know, is im really really tired, and there is lots of blood in my stool, and 9 times out of ten, when I do have a bowel movement, I get the sweats real bad and feel like im gonna pass out too.

Im not very functionable thats for sure ****, I kind of feel like an invalid right now, and absolutely afraid to eat, because everything I eat just goes right through me, as a result of undigested food, lots and lots of blood throughout the stool.

I think that he is probably testing for toxicity in the liver, which can be caused from malnutrition,

anyways, thanks for all of your inputs and insights,

take care everyone cant wait to hear some responses,

So I have had my scopes, one downt the esophagus, and one up the rectum. I do not get the results until his office calls me and until the results of the biopsies come in, is this usual? I could have sworn that usually the doctor speaks to you after the scope??? Atleast when I had my colonoscopy before, the doctor spoke with me. I did not get to see the doc at all, just the nurse. The only thing she said, is that he did biopsies of my esophagus, stomach and large and small bowel. I could see blood in my system, as I vaguely recall watching it on the tv that was infront of me.

The only thing, that he did do, right away, is increase my perriet??

This was given to me for acid in my stomach, at the hospital when I was seeking care there for constipation.

Not really sure what this means, however, soon to find out I hope, I really do hope that they find something, because I do not want to start back at square one!

thanks for everything, and all your insights,
