Posted on Fri, 16 Dec 2016
Question: I have been nauseas and lack of appetite. Extra saliva always...I went and had an endoscopy and colonoscopy. Colonoscopy was fine but endo showed one bump..doc called it a nodule. She biopsied the surface. She was not overly concerned but from what I read I was nervous. This was all done today. I do have photos of bump which I can include.

Thanks, XXXXXXX

Brief Answer:
Likely to be harmless

Detailed Answer:
hello,
I've seen the photograph . The nodules appears to be a submucosal ( beneath the inner lining of the stomach) nodule. Such nodule are usually due to benign Or harmless conditions like leiomyoma or lipoma and do not need any treatment.
So relax and wait for the biopsy report.
hope this helps
