Hey Gals and Dolls,
I am having an ERCT, Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography, in the morning. They did a specialized CT 2 weeks ago and apparently "something" showed up and since my liver counts are so high, they want to "take a look". Has anyone had this done. They will be looking into my stomach, bile ducts, pancress and liver I believe. Any advice or questions to ask? Angela

    Test
    Angela, I am sorry that something has gotten attention on your CT. I don't know anything about the test, but I will be praying for you and for good news. We Southern belles (I'm from TN, and you can definitely hear the hills in my voice!) are much stronger than we may appear. I have read many of your posts and am in awe of your strength and courage. They make them strong and beautiful in Georgia!

    Angela, I've never heard of
    Angela, I've never heard of this test but if something seems amiss then I'm glad you're getting it. It certainly sounds comprehensive and when they find nothing you'll know they looked pretty much everywhere and will be assured. I'll be thinking of you and sending you lots of good vibes, hugs and prayers.
    love
