Thanks to all for your support and help. I agree about anti inflammatory diets and do try to eat this way when I can. I will look up bone broth - anything to help. This new GI lady did a real number on my pouch area - it's like she beat the hell out of it or something - have never had this much pain after a scope. I don't know if she knew what she was doing...my retired GI, who trained her, was so great - no pain ever after a scope. I am going to take the suggestion above - I am going to take 2 more ibuprofen - it did not seem to bother my upper GI much and I have got to do something about this pain. It's not the "screaming" kind -but it's making walking and doing much of anything very hard. I kept thinking by now it would go away - not yet. Scope was Friday - so I will give it a week and see. Thanks to you all for support.
