Cashmere, isn't the upper G.I. just the series of Xrays? I think the scope thing you were describing before might be called an endoscopy.
For infants, they have to put the barium in there via a tube.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
upper GI as opposed to lower is a scope - and they may be using the scope to see how the vavle is behaving

Yes, I am just hoping I pronounced your last name correctly.
HA! He probably doens't know it. But he'll remember "Nora."

That sounds like a better plan than having to voluntarily swallow the stuff.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
absolutely. But consider the possibility that he scheduled the test so that she could have it as soon as possible IF you decided to go through with it. It is entirely possible that he is going to call you like he said, and the scheduler didn't realize the situation. But, be prepared to bitch slap if I'm wrong.
Oh Cashmere! Ugh! But Vortex really really may have a point here. He may have seen the spot on the schedule and snapped it up so he wouldn't lose it before he had the chance to talk to you.
And we can slap him later if need be.

I went to go say it and realized you are just "Nora" to me.

ha - still deserves a slap even if that was the plan - If someone called and did that and it was for ME - that would cause a panic attack. For my baby - full panic - that could have been prevented.

Mostly lurking...
If anyone here has a number where she can be reached can they email me at my profile addy?
As far as I know, there is no way to contact her till tomorrow. But, I'd send her an e-mail so she has it right away when she gets access again tomorrow. Her new e-mail address is serasempre at gmail dot com.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Is it too late to join the SFers in bitching about the weather?
I feel like finding a desert to run away to.
