I have been having similar symptoms for 18 months and was scheduled for gastroscopy for the second time today but cancelled my appointment last minute cause I really dont want to go through having a garden hose showed down my throat. Tried Gaviscon but didnt feel that much difference. They scheduled a new appointment in a months time from now and I might have to go through it. Feels like I have a burn in my throat and upper chest and its causing me difficulties eating non liquid food. It takes at least one hour to eat a hambuger for me. Used to take 5 minutes..... :/
Ik this is well old but im 15 and i didnt realise how debilitating this used to be for me I used to have accidents like most weeks at school in year 8 and 9 and i hated it and now its sometimes stress that causes it and still the laughing one but not as common
Ive had reflux since i was 7. I remember the first time it happened, it scared me to death. Im now almost 32 and it has become normal to me. I can be stood up straight, and i will still have my stomach contents coming up into my throat. Im so used to it now that its just mild a inconvenience. Eating too much triggers it, and also eating too little triggers it. You literally cant win with it. I eat all the foods i shouldnt but lifes too short to live on lettuce and ice cubes which lets be honest, is pretty much the only thing that wont make it worse. Its a horrible condition. Im suprised I've never been sent for an endoscopy, but i think its going to happen in the near future. Im also petrified of gagging and vomiting too. My husband had his without sedation and he said it wasnt even that bad 😳 Im being sedated if i ever have to have one 😭 I take Lansoprazole for my reflux and when taken regularly, it works. Have you ever been prescribed anything like this? You shouldn't have to be buying Gaviscon and other Indigestion remedies like that, they're so bloody expensive and the OTC ones are never strong enough. Definitely mention Lansoprazole if you havent tried it already, its a game changer. Hugs to you ❤
Awe bless you im dreading the test i have it on the 17 th of May ,i hope u hsve found out whsts wring and can get trestment and get better ,i dint eant put to sleep ,i will be scared to 😰💖🙏🇬🇧
Thank you for your video, I didn't want to look into it much before the procedure as I was scared prior and didn't want to worry myself too much but after today I found out that it's a horrible experience! I only used the numbing spray like you also but I think if I was to have to have it done again I would go for sedation too as it was so hard for my body just to allow the tube to be put down my throat! It's not natural, soon as that tube was taken out I just sobbed becausw I was in shock and it was embarrassing due to all the burping and gagging!
Oh, you poor girl I know what it’s like to have something done and almost feel excited after the procedure because in your mind you believe thank God they’re gonna be able to diagnose me know what’s happening. I can treat this and I can get back to normal and then to find out, they believe nothing is wrong when you know your body and you know it’s a terrible terrible feeling.
Have you tried changing your diet rather than taking gaviscone. Look up alkaline diet if you haven't already and keep to it strictly. Wishing you well.
Be tough. Be assertive. Stop being Mr. Nice Guy. Because if you think the NHS is a good health service you need to get real. I have no doubt that there is a prognosis and you can be cured. It’s the old NHS trick of fobbing you off. But you do need to stop being so polite. It’s all about money. You have to make it clear that this is unacceptable. If you keep being unassertive you’ll be at the bottom of the pile. I don’t take prisoners when dealing with the NHS. If they have said this to you I’m not surprised. Disgraceful but pretty standard for the NHS since Blair. Campaign for Patients’ Rights (CPR)
Had mine yesterday. It really is what you make if it. I opted for no sedation because i need to drive. The theoat spray did what it says on the tin. Relax and breathe and its no trouble at all. Worse part was trying to swallow with the mouth guard in. For anyone nervous about this procedure, dont be, close your eyes and breathe and you will be fine.
Hey, I also have an endoscopy on 27th this month.. it is really a very bad combination to be a med student have had clinical depression a year back, both of these suggest I have been overthinking and everything boils down everytime, even if I have a ruptured appendix to stress and anxiety. I hate it, being underdiagnosed and being told I have nothing when I've suffered so much because of so many things. Lost count of hospital admissions I've had in 2 years. Also mine will be without sedation like you. I hate sedation and general anesthesia because they always trigger depressive episodes and sometimes even suicid@l ones Edit : It's done. It was uncomfortable because of the throat pain and constricting feeling I had from the very beginning but not too bad. It only took like 3 mins maximum. They found out a lax LES and lots of pharyngitis because of the acid tricking back up in the throat. Not much of a gastric issue I guess. I hope I do not vomit too much today because I do feel strange
Had the camera done today, I was nervous after watching RU-vid vids like yours but thought the procedure was very easy, slight uncomfortable but a lot less than I was expecting
I saw every video of yours... Please help me out m in a great problem...i have anxiety...n shiver a lot in social situations. ...i. cannot hold spoon without Shivering. Cannot sign without shivering. I want to tell you I had ibs.. N incontinence from past 3 years.... When ever I have anxiety my poop leaks n it's very embarrassing. I want to get married but m afraid of this situation .because whenever I feel too happy or sad .or anxious my stool accidently leaks.. Can you please help me out dear.. M facing hell. M a girl n it's such an issue
I went through something like this when I was 9 . I have ASD depression and anxiety. I would have to go to the bathroom a lot . I didn’t know why I was going through it. But I found out I was going through my anxiety due to me being bullied due to my disability..
Hello my apologies but im here from a former video you did based on acid reflux and an endoscopy please help me i am suffering from the exact thing you were even at the endoscopy
please tell me you doing better now and how you done because i literally did the same thing today and they basically told me im fine and im clueless i was expecting surgery referral because i been suffering
I had one last month without sedation but two times the throat spray. I was really nervous and kinda panicked the first time they put the spray in the back of my throat but the second time I barely felt it because my throat was already kinda numb. When the tube went in I didn't gag at all. It felt uncomfortable for sure and when it was almost in my stomach I felt it moving and especially when they pulled it back out I felt it. If you don't have a gag easily (like not at the dentist or something) and you have the throat spray the full dose they recommend then I guess you're fine. But it is really mental I think, because when I noticed I didn't gag I was way more relaxed and could focus on my breathing
thank u for being with me. i thought i was the only person eating at the bathroom. i want you to know that we can make this together as long as we believe in our hardwork. God bless u.
I am having an endoscopy on Friday with no anesthesia and I was very touched by your video and was wondering if you ever found any relief for your symptoms.
Saw the show on Saturday night at the Orchard in Dartford, very entertaining and enjoyable. Only thing was my wife took her Late nans ring, Derren said "all the people who have brought a ring sit down" then he ended up picking a girl left standing who'd brought a ring anyway. There were a few mysteries we picked up on which were questionable but the show was good nethertheless. Won't spoilt it for others here either. Can't see why anyone would not enjoy this, 👍
