Hi Genie
I don't think a stool for occult blood would help. Your stools would be dark if you had blood in them. Your doctor is right about the obstruction. You wouldn't be able to have a BM and yes, you would be nauseated. The biopsy didn't hurt. It was an endoscopy hooked up to an ultra sound machine, The US picture showed my pancreas head swollen, and they take a needle and just pierce the pancreas to get a little liquid or smear. It doesn't hurt at all, but they do knock you out, just like for a regular endoscopy. Your elevations may be from your gastritis or mild pancreatitis. Although my doctor told me the most accurate diagnosis of pancreatitis is the endoscope ultra sound. Maybe you should have one of those done. Sure hope you get results, and hope you don't have to wait until November. Louise

Hi Louise
I had the ultra sound endoscope In March at the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix & they said everything was fine except for the Gastritis . I still think is all from the adhesion's. .I am considered complicated with a interesting history by the Mayo Clinic dr's there. I was born with 2 uterus & 1 ovary on opposite sides & that is why I was never able to have children. I adopted. I had my 1st major surgery at 20 years old & that is when I found out that I had endometriosis & I have had several surgeries for it & I am now 69 years old. All the surgeries caused all these adhesion's & they are so bad that they are plastered on all the other organs & twisiting in al different directions. I had the best dr. at the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix 7 he had problems with me. There was a tare in the small bowel bc of the dense & extensive adhesion's. So do you see what I mean.
How are you doing? Your in my prayers. Thank you Lousie for all your help.
