Oral contrast CT results..
hello.. I am cross posting this.
Results from my oral contrast CT showed a "distended small bowel loop in the left upper quadrant below the diaphragm which is chronic". It also says it was there in a 2014 CT but appears slightly larger now. I had eaten and drank a small amount prior to this CT. I have had only residual pain in the left quadrant nothing alarming, I am able to eat and drink, but upper abdomen is distended after. The CT was to check for upper right quadrant and lower pelvic pain. Lower right pelvic finding was "chronic focal hyperdensity in the perineal region, unchanged and may be calcification".
My question is, has anyone had either of these diagnosis and either had it treated or left it untreated?
My bypass dr is wanting to do a DIAGNOSTIC laparoscopy but my thought is to find out exactly what we are dealing with first of possible.
next test is drink something and be X-rayed in the process to see how things are flowing through the pouch area.....
please please share your thoughts..thank you!
