Yes fasting five days messes up the test results. You don’t fast for five days. My gastroenterologist said to eat like you regularly do otherwise the test will not read right. Mine did not move and I had to go back the next day. Took two days for that darn stuff to make it out of my stomach.

Hind sights 20/20. It's not intentional I blew the test out of the water. I didn't eat W prior to Thanksgiving. I could not take eating to expect painful stomach distensions. After W & Th I don't know Why I made up my mind then, I won't eat & do the reintroduction. I get my protein in a 30g carton x3 a day. I'm feeling somewhat better. Put on 5 pounds. Actually, I chalked it all up to my redundant torturous colon. Feeding that easy to digest foods. I asked nurse & she asked xray & they said no fasting would not effect GES test. I'm asking my GI Dec 19th appt. Thanks for letting me know what you know abt it, I'm not disregarding what you said
