Any one had an endoscopy??

[smiles]

Hi there, I had an endoscopy on Tuesday, all fine thank goodness, however I am still really uncomfortable when I swallow, to the point I'm not eating because even swallowing drinks hurt.
I am now starting to get anxious that something had damaged me inside because I thought you only got soreness for 24 hours post procedure, I did have a couple of biopsys but it's now 48 hours and I'm v uncomfortable!!
Has any one else has this & how long befor the soreness stopped??
Thanks sarah

Ps no fevers etc

It's normal. Mine lasted for five days. I had a nasal endoscopy. Some people have it for a couple of weeks.

Just eat mushy food and warm drinks (not too hot), and rest your voice.

Yes I had one 2 years ago and I had a sore throat for a few days afterwords. The doctor should have told you that was a possibility, mine did. Anyways should be gone in a few.

Hi

We have a whole sub-forum dedicated to this so I will move your post there and maybe reading the threads in it will help.

Dr told me about sore throat, just not about sore swallowing

My throat felt swollen for five days then disappeared. It's perfectly normal.
