I just got back from my doctors office. I have my pre ops on July 30 2012. They do EKG, Blood work, x ray chest , ultrasound gallbladder and upper GI.
I am a lil scared of the upper GI and was wondering how your expierence was? I know i will get something but still :-)
Thanks for the help :-)

I was knocked out too. No problems. Sounds like pretty normal pre-ops except I had already had my gallbladder removed. Not to worry.

I wasn't knocked out but it was a lot like getting an xray after drinking a fizzy drink and not anything scary.

You are so lucky that you get knocked out for it, up here you're awake (stoned) but awake. I know I'm going to puke, and freak out when the Dr is trying to shove that tube down my throat.

Mine was last week and I was nervous too but it went very smooth. Nothing to be concerned about in retrospect, easy stuff.
