Upper GI Series Today
Hi there--
I had an upper GI Series with a follow through today. My surgeon thinks I may have some leakage at the staple line. Do you know how long it takes to get the results of the GI series? I couldn't get any information from the radiologist tech or PA on what was going on. The admissions nurse told me that the xrays take 30 minutes.......It took 3.5 hours for me. Does any one know if it is normal to make you walk the hospital halls for a 1/2 to a whole hour between xrays? They kept saying my transit time was slow and I needed to walk to speed things up. Thanks!
