Can A GI Barium Swallow Diagnose The Cause Of Stomach Cramps?

Needs more quantity of barium to see the stomach and lower tract.
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood the concerns.
As per the history I could understand that you have cramping in chest and/or upper abdomen that releases on bending in a certain way. Still hurting. Barium swallow - is it done or yet to be done - if done please post the reports.
In case of Barium swallow the amount of barium given is not much that it can be traced down in a nice way - your request for additional Barium Meal with Follow-through can opacify/see-for the stomach and small intestines and even the colon.
What was the Radical hysterectomy done for?
Any Upper GI Endoscopy done?
Please give detailed history and post reports for me to assist you better.
I hope this answers your query.
