Hey Abi, I can't say i've had a camera in my throat but i've had a camera somewhere very unpleasant, It nothing to worry about. It's a straight forward procedure. But if you're so worried would it be possible for seditives during the procedure? Ask your doctor about it and talk to him, He'll tell you it's prefectly safe. *BIG HUG!*
"When god gives you oranges, make lemonade then let them wonder, how the hell you did it!"
youve not text back for a while now & im worrying baby.
You know my views on this hun,,, youre so damn ill & its so sad,,, i jaust want you to be okay
<3
Your mind fogs up, you open your eyes and you are surrounded,,, chained to what you can't see,,, only sense. I'm choking when I try to inhale. My throat constricts, I can't swallow,
I think I bit off more than I could chew
Abi hun I just wanted to let you know I've had this done before,, & I know it's scary but it is a straight forward procedure & they do everything possible to make you comfortable.
I hope it went okay, & you're feeling alright. after I had it done I was quite out of it for over 24 hours as the stuff they used to put me to sleep wore off, but apart from that I felt okay. in the end they're only doing this to help you, & I hope it does get you moving in the right direction for your health.
you can PM me if you need someone to talk to okay?
An endoscopy? No, I've not had one but there's been talk of it.
Apparently it feels uncomfortable (understandably) and you just have to swallow while the tube is put down then they put something on your mouth to help you breathe while they are looking into your upper gastrointestinal tract. There will be the option of taking a sedative so that you are 75% out of it anyway and it only takes 5 minutes!
Aw. I've gone through the exact same thing. It was a few years ago and the doctors were panicing because I was losing so much weight. I got to the point where I was literally starving to death and they had to take me to the hospital. They shoved a camera down my throat thinking I had ulcers, but they found nothing. Basically, I turned out to be anorexic and still am. I got through period when I eat a lot and gain weight, where I'm "normal size". Right now I'm having a bad time and I haven't been eating. I found myself only eating sweets today, only a keylime pie to cheer myself up, but my shriking stomach told me that I had already eaten too much. It's not used to food.

I remembered being terrified the entire time I was there too. I almost hoped it was an ulcer so I didn't have to face that, as my dad told me... "all in my head".
