A Better Negative

This time, I'm really glad.

Both the stomach biopsy and the polyp came back totally benign. No cancer, no bacteria. Nothing.

The extensive inflammation is probably from all the meds and all the post-nasal drip - all on a low intake of food.

I've been told post-nasal drip can be seriously corrosive. It causes nausea, all sorts of acid-related problems. Being a hyper-secretor - a nice way of saying I make way more goop than the law allows - I'm probably a hyper-corroder too, huh?

I don't know if this is enough to explain the gut pains, I'll have to wait for my confab with the gastro doc to hear. Surely it's enough to explain a lot of it, though.

Good. Good good GOOD!
