Glad to hear that it went okay!

Hope the barium effects wear off as quickly as possible.

I wonder if the stomach effects would be lessen if your stomach wasn't full? I have the opposite problem with weight and eating now, but as a child I was chronically ill and my medications made it very difficult to eat. Eating only one or two bites at a time often lessened the stomach pain. For example, a sandwich cut into tiny cubes, eating one or two every 30 or 45 minutes. Just a thought.

Praying you get good results!
