I just had this done but didn't get the results back yet.

First, you must fast for 12 hours, then you go in and they mix up a cup of lactose. It's made from a powder mixture and tastes like water. Then you blow into this little bag every thirty minutes (different bag each time) for about three and a half hours. Long, boring test. I don't have the results back from mine yet, but my doc is ruling everything out. I just had a colo/endo done on the 21st and have had a ton of bloodwork done. I go back next week to discuss all my tests.

The doc found out I had two ulcers, though, and he's treating those.
