Hi everyone, i had my endoscopy done on the 10th. The doctor took a biopsy of my stomach and a biopsy of my esophagus. It was reall easy i was knocked out the whole time and only the day after was their some discomfort. I should ge the results anyday now, the nurse said i do not have a hernia, but i knew that. The Dr. said that he saw no ulcer but there was abnormal tissue and that is why he took the biopsies. It is probably just from having GERD for so long. (So far) there is no other reason for the GERD other than something that is muscle related, i will know more next week.
