Scrumpy


.. in these here parts..
Yesterday at 9am I had a Barium Feed.. No food or liquid since the previous day..

It was bloody awful.. It was a clear liquid not the regular stuff..
I am sure it was knocked up by a mad scientist in a experimental laboratory.
I was told to drink.. hold.. swallow.. drink .. hold swallow.. At least 15 times.. 
Turn this way .. and that way.. Then all of a sudden I was laying on my back from an upright position.. My head went all dizzy.. I swooned but didn't pass out.. 
I then had to drink and hold this potion in my mouth.. sipped from a straw..
  I burped all the way back to the dressing cubicle..
I couldn't wait to get home.. Tea.. toast.. Food of the Gods..
I went for a walk.. I couldn't wait for lunch.. Followed by
biscuits with a cup of tea in the afternoon.. The excitement of eating took over...
Then it happened.. A rumbling started up.. My tummy started to bloat..  I popped to the loo.. and I mean POPPED.. all the way..  The popping and rumbling  went on all evening..
Then bed...Try laying down flat in bed when your belly is full of noxious gases.. !!!

I told the (lovely) woman who carried out the procedure..
'Thank you for helping me.. But I will not be drinking in your establishment again'
Don't ask me.. I know nuffink..

Oh no,  that sounds  really rotten, Scrumpy.
I hope you're feeling a bit better today.

How long before you get your results?

Wind has died down..  :clap:  Light diet today..  :grin: :grin:
Results will go to hospital doctor who requested the Barium feed.. Who knows how long results will be..
Strange really .. I only went to the doctor with a sinus complaint and ended up having things poked 
here there and everywhere.. 
This is what the wealthy call a 'check-up'.. 
I am certainly being given the 'once over'..
.... and I still haven't been to ENT consultant.. The appointment is arranged for March..
 I will not knock the NHS nor my doctor.. They have been great..
Don't ask me.. I know nuffink..

Glad you're better today, Scrumps.

You seem to have more faith in your ENT people than I have in mine.
I  just got the results a couple of days ago,  of a scan I had in early December.
I thought it didn't make sense, so phoned the secretary, only to find they had sent me someone else's results in error!!
