st vincent tomorrow

hi all i am going back to st vincents tomorrow. the dr suspects stricture or stenosis so i will have a scope done to see what is going on

HI! What is stenosis? I hope everything goes well for you! St. Vincent's is wonderful! Cindy

I think a stenosis is similar to a stricture,.. a narrowing of some part of the digestive tract.  Linda Vicory

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

  A stenosis is an abnormal narrowing in a blood vessel or other tubular organ or structure. It is also sometimes called a "stricture" (as in urethral stricture). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Same culprit. Good luck Kat! Enjoy the nap...and the good drugs! LOL! You'll feel much better afterwards. I take that you are having problems keeping food down. It's best to get the scope done before you end  up dehydrated (alot easier for them to start the IV too!).
