    Yes. Get him to make a phone call. I've had my GP phone up the hospital before (while I was sat there) and give them both barrels. Amazing what that does.

    You eat the barium, and since its a heavy metal, it shows up opaque on X rays. It allows them to see soft tissue better, so they can see if there are any blockages, leaks or twists in your intestines.

    You will just have to start, then they'll read your notes. It won't take long. Take the appointment letter to your GP too.

    Sounds like an interesting experience :eek: I'm sure they are meant to tell you a bit more about it, I just have a letter, some laxative and the laxative instructions :confused:

    Congrats Jinky!

    So much happy news today-makes me feel all warm and happy inside!

    (Keren and Maz-I bought my wedding dress before DH asked me to marry him...in fact, he has yet to ask me and it's 9 years this july! He maintains the only reason we did get married was to keep me in the country. I wish I had gone running back to Canada)
