Hello @hopeful33250. One month later and finally got it done, it was painless and easy. No side effects, yet—I literally just got back though. They did find some small polyps in there, and removed them. Now I will have to take stomach meds for awhile. And doc said come back in a year. So, nothing serious but I do need a healthier lifestyle. I drink way too much coffee for my own good, for instance. And also lay off the beer. Otherwise, glad it’s done!
