Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Been put on a course of beta blockers as I was starting to have panic attacks going to work. Gotta give them a month to see what happens.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Hope they work for you Mark as it cannot be nice having panic attacks on a daily basis.

Well I can confirm that my endoscopy once again did not go well and the hospital will need to discuss how and what they plan to do about my symptoms, if they do nothing then that is fine by me as I can assure you I will never have this test done ever again either with sedation or throat spray.

I just cannot do this test and that's that. Hubby has been looking at how much this would be private and I told him not to bother, trust me I will not budge on this one, in fact I take my hat off to anyone who can do this test, I can't.

My hubby asked me to describe it and I can only say for me it was truly horrendous on both occasions, I would not wish this on anyone...

I do feel I have let my family down but I just can't do this test, as that is twice I have tried and twice I have failed not to mention the waste of money I have now cost the NHS :(

Sorry to hear this Weenie, this test is definately not for you ,even if it was private it would probable be the same procedure, Hope they can find another solution for you,

No it is not nash, I'm going to see my consultant next week so we will see what he has to say.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

You haven't let anyone down weenie, you tried to do the test and you can't. Your comfort has to come first, and I am sure the doctors will be able to find a test for you.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Ditto those thoughts

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

I may have mentioned before but only way my hospital managed to get my endoscopy was under a general. Even both local and sedation didn't work. This was NHS not private.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Keep us up to date Weenie

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

tweetiepooh, it looks like I will be getting this test done under GA.

My consultants secretary has just phoned and asked me if I would consider this test under a GA and I said yes, she said excellent and she would now be contacting the appointment booking office. I'm so relieved as I know I need this test and I'm just so relieved that this has been offered to myself.

I still do not know how anyone can manage this test with just the throat spray, sedation or both.

Like I say I found this to be truly horrendous on both occasions.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Glad you will be getting the GA to get things sorted out, Take Care

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Oh nash I was so pleased when I got the call and a solution was offered.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

You can content yourself now, I get one every two years but I am fine with a sedative ;)

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Glad you’ve got a solution.
