? Endoscopy ?

[jema]

I am waiting my appointment for endoscopy at SRH and was just wondering what it is they look for....
A couple of years ago, I used to get a pain under my right breast and Dr. told me she thought it was gall stones. The very next day I found out I was pregnant and Dr. said she must have misdiagnosed the gall stones, and it was probably symptoms of the pregnancy. The pain (more discomfort) does seem to have gone since my son was born, but I get the odd strange feeling there. Will the endoscopy show if I do have gall stones, or does it just identify problems in the gullet?
Thanks in advance.

Hi the endoscopy is to check that your stomach is healthy before they make your small pouch out of the top bit, dont think they will be able to check for gall stones with it.
