And it was DISGUSTING!
Did they make you drink some 'gas pills' first as well?? I had never heard of these before, but I had to swallow a whole bunch of these sort of crystallised things and I got about two drops of water to swallow them down, so they were fizzing in my throat and stuff, it was awful. Then they told me I had to keep it down, and not to burp which was really painful.
THEN I had the barium and it was worse than I remember - so thick I almost gagged. Then the thing I was standing on fell backwards so I was lying down, and they made me roll from one side to other about 10 times, it was so embarassing and awful wearing one of those stupid hospital gowns.
Anyway, as soon as it was over all I wanted to do was to throw it up. I kept gagging, but I couldn't throw it up so I just went to bed and tried to wait for it to settle a little.

I won't have my results for over a week, so here's to waiting!
I'm glad yours went okay and there were no disasters, thank goodness for that!!
