Colonoscopy & Endoscopy
A myHIVteam Member asked a question πŸ’­

My GI set me an appointment on the same day for both. I'm not to excited to go, but understand its for my health, so I'll go.

Has anyone ever had a colonoscopy and Endoscopy done? What are some things they can find by doing this?

I have both lined up but was unaware you could do both of them at the same time.

Is that true ?

Thanks for bringing this subject up DRS and to others who answered it.

I've had it done too but I had to have a hemorrhoidal ligation procedure done so my down time was about a week because I couldn't stand for long periods of time and that's what I do at my job . The process its self I hear is easy or not that bad which it wasn't accept for mine was a discomfort for a couple weeks after . So lots of warm baths , sometimes 2 or 3 a day. Helped alleviate the discomfort

I called both my doctor's this morning and learned that an endoscopy can be used for both the (throat) and (nose.) Endoscopy is a general term. I called both doctors to determine this.
