Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had a scope inserted into my stomach through my mouth a few weeks ago, I was diagnosed with a hernia and something wrong with my oesophagus. I was prescribed medication and have been fine, no more sickness. However I have just received a letter advising me they want to insert the scope again. What could this mean?
Thanks for posting your query to health care magic. I didnt understand why your clinician want to do endoscopic examination again . As if they had done examination once no need to repeat the test .So first you confirm for what purpose they want to repeat the test . sometimes it can be repeat to take some biopsy material if not taken during first time . However there are different type of hernia and require surgical managment . review afer complete information for repeating the test then I would suggest what to do .
