And it's a miracle really! :) They found absolutely NOTHING!!! The polyp and the dilated common bile duct that showed up on my ultrasound were not present when the GI doc went in and looked at my gallbladder and bilary ducts. Infact, he saw no sign of anything abnormal. Furthermore, there is no erosion of my esophagus or stomach. Everything appeared normal! He does want me to have a second ultrasound in a month or so just to double-check. He was a bit bewildered that the US showed things that he couldn't find.

I have been feeling quite a bit better too. Almost a normal diet. I still feel some heartburn almost daily; especially after eating. So I will keep taking my prevacid and just watch my diet.

Glad you are feeling better. It is frustrating when they don't find anything on the tests because there is nothing specific to go after, on the other hand, it is good that they found nothing very serious.
