What Can I Expect After My Upper GI Endoscopy?

What Can I Expect After My Upper GI Endoscopy?

You will be monitored until most of the effects of the medication have worn off. Your throat might be a little sore, and you might feel bloated because of the air introduced into your stomach during the test. You will be able to eat after you leave unless your doctor instructs you otherwise.

Dr. Washington generally can tell you your test results on the day of the procedure; however, the results of some tests might take several days.

If you received sedatives, you won't be allowed to drive after the procedure even though you might not feel tired. You should arrange for someone to accompany you home because the sedatives might affect your judgment and reflexes for the rest of the day.
