Colonoscopy
Colon polyps are fairly common benign growths of the colon. There are different types of polyps, some of which are considered pre-cancerous. Polyps grow larger over time and may bleed. All polyps found during colonoscopy are removed painlessly through the scope and sent to the lab for microscopic examination.

Endoscopy
Upper G.I. endoscopy is a direct examination of your food pipe, stomach, and a portion of the small bowel. A gastroscope is a small, flexible instrument, about the diameter of a pencil, with a light and a lens at the end which allows your doctor to see your upper digestive tract. Before the procedure, you will be given a mild sedative. Oral topical (spray) medication will also be given to numb your mouth and throat. A small plastic mouthpiece with a hole in the center will be placed in your mouth between your teeth to protect the gastroscope. The tube-like instrument is then passed through the hole in the mouthpiece, into your mouth and food pipe (esophagus) and into the stomach and small bowel (duodenum) so that inspection can be carried out. During the procedure you will be lying on your left side. You will be asked to swallow as the tube is being inserted. Since the tube is inserted into your food pipe (esophagus) and not into your wind pipe (trachea, a separate pipe), it will not interfere with your breathing in any way. A sensation of bloating may occur when air is pumped into the stomach for better visualization. Various samples, including biopsies and brushings, can be taken from abnormal areas such as ulcers or tumors. This sampling is not painful. Certain treatments may also be given through the scope as in the case of gastrointestinal bleeding. If you experience any discomfort during the procedure, additional sedation or pain medication may be given. The procedure usually takes 5-15 minutes. During the procedure your blood pressure, pulse and breathing will be monitored.

Ulcer
A peptic ulcer is a sore in the lining of the stomach or duodenum (upper part of the small intestine). It is now known that 80-90% of peptic ulcers are caused helicobacter Pylori, a bacteria that lives in the lining of the stomach. Ulcer symptoms may include a dull, gnawing pain occurring 2-3 hours after meals or when the stomach is empty which is relieved by eating, bloating, gas, nausea and weight loss. H. Pylori is easily cured with a two week therapy consisting of an antibiotic to kill the bacteria and a drug to decrease stomach acid and protect the lining of the stomach.
