I just find it super crazy how this is really our anatomy it’s crazy to me on the outside we have the personality and everything that makes us ourselves and then you have our body’s on the inside working hard everyday to provide us life it’s amazing
This was the most fascinating procedure I've ever had. Trying not to gag while looking into your stomach is confusing yet exciting at the same time. I had to find a videos just to see it all again😁 The procedure is a little bit uncomfortable but painless even when tissue samples are taken. The body is amazing! Thank you for posting this video and for everything that you do to help us!
This was absolutely fantastic. You are a great teacher with clear descriptions. I found this absolutely fascinating and can't wait to see if there are other videos to watch. This definitely helps me understand some of the procedures I've had/continue to get. Thanks for sharing!
I had this procedure done 30 years ago when I had a Mallory-Weiss tear, and another one recently [2022] when a Hiatus Hernia was discovered. On neither occasion did I opt for sedation. The Lignocaine spray rendered it unnecessary, and I drove home soon afterwards. For anyone who is due to undergo this procedure: be not afraid. The worst part for me was the fast leading up to it, and the restriction on eating for an hour after it until the Lignocaine wore off.
I really loved the video. You explained everything you were doing very well. Thanks for giving us the chance to see how this procedure looks from the doctor's perspective!
Thank you so much Dr. for sharing this very informative video! You explained it very well. Your words are very clear to understand. So it's very useful to all non english speakers like me. Best regards! 🙏
Thanks for your kind words. As an aside, I make sure we have accurate close captioning on all of my videos for patients who are hearing impaired or prefer to read the text rather than listening.
Thank you Dr. Moran. I've had my second gastroscopy today with the banana troat spray. I finally get to see what's happening during this procedure. Big thanks
Thank you for sharing this video, I found it extremely helpful especially as I’m planning on having a Gastroscope tomorrow at the hospital where I live in Sandown, Isle of Wight, UK. My Gastroenterologist diagnosed me having a Hiatus Hernia while having a Barium Meal! He is now looking for something else, I have had many of these done to me over the years! I found you explained this procedure very well... Thank you very much. I wish you were my doctor! Best wishes and Stay safe...
I've got a gastroscopy tomorrow and it's interesting to see what the doctor will be looking at. I found the procedural part of the video most interesting. Thank you for sharing and thanks to the patient.
Fantastic video. So clear. The anatomy review was really helpful and the narration throughout the gastroscopy makes it easy to understand exactly what's going on.
This is Jerry Redmond Oregon I have a high hernia and I’ve seen many videos throughout my life but this is probably one of the most thorough and understanding and Videos and explained thank you very much
Hello once again this is Jerry from Redmond I’ve had my hernia operation everything came out very nicely and it wasn’t half as bad as anyone thought it would be everything‘s doing good thanks
Wow just had this procedure done but couldn’t watch the video prior as it would scare me but now seeing it, it’s not that bad. … I didn’t need a biopsy and my Doctor was right he was in there and out in less than 5 min and things went well. Thanks for sharing this video 💚
Thank you for making Video . It was an eye opener for me. Educational, informative indeed.. I this this procedure today noon. You were right, had no pain, only panicked during, my Doctor was Superb helping me to focus on my Breathing👍🏽👍🏽. Lots I learned from this tonight. Will be checking as post a video. Super Job. You Rock.
All information in one video. Sir, you are doing it right. After this video i am sure that i will start medical reserch. Greetings from medical engineer :)
Fascinating watching this procedure. I had the same procedure some years ago and very shortly having another Although it is uncomfortable, it is not painful in anyway. Thank you for the demonstration Doctor. 🙂
Wow, I've always expected the stomach to look like an oval-shaped balloon thingy with a bit of liquid on the bottom. Id also like to know is the acid in the stomach damages the camera in any way.
Thank you, Doctor Moran! I’m having this next month in January 2024, and you’ve helped me greatly in understanding all this! Much less ‘scary’ now. Thank you!!
@@MedicinewithDrMoran Dr Moran, my Doc & his Gastro Dept want me to take a gastroscopy AND colonoscopy on the same day, & I really don’t want to. This is exploratory at the most, & I believe I should take the colonoscopy at a later date. Whatthinkye, Sir?!
i’ve been getting endoscopies since i was 13 due to diagnosing my EoE, so here I am after my 5th one bc why not see a video lol. I’ve kept all my procedure reports with the pictures from my procedure bc it’s so cool to look back at and see how my esophagus and intestines evolved during my treatments
very interesting. I would love to have this done as well as a colonoscopy. Been struggling with stomach issues. I'm afraid anxiety will have me though maybe I'll start with bloodwork
Very interesting to watch this, I've had the Halo treatment. And been feeling great since however I do have to go in again for OGD poss Barratts again, but very interesting to watch , as I'm usually sedated.
Had seen a lot of animated videos of the same. Thanks Dr Moran for showing the real thing. Subscribing your channel and look forward to see more such videos.
@@MedicinewithDrMoran omg thank you so much this has calmed me down so much. they gave me the option to either get this done or not but i’m gonna get it done just incase
Honestly, I'm currently a bit terrified. I did a gastroscopy/endoscopy about 9.5 years ago. I figured myself strong and did it with no numbing spray, no anesthesia, no calming meds, nothing. It was a nightmare. Constant puking, pain and general contracting and foaming at the mouth and tearing up. I felt like I was dying. Meanwhile, the doctor oh-so-kindly told me to stop contracting my stomach because he couldn't see things properly. Yeah, god damn easy. Now I need another one due to having various issues and burping constantly. I had a hiatal hernia last time and wondering if it got worse, also wondering if something else is up like gastritis. The thing is, I talked with my doctor today and realized the need to do one, I'm also generally anxious and feel bad so I need answers quickly. They had me choose from two options. The first was to do it at a bigger hospital and then getting numbing spray and sedating medication (but not anesthesia), but the wait time would be longer, although they're not sure how long. The second option was to do it at their clinic and I'd have to do without anything again. Something about me being in a risk category due to my obesity so they don't allow for my the numbing spray. I might be able to score some sedating medicine to numb my feelings and anxiety but it's going to be one hell of a crappy ride again. I'm afraid of the torture but also afraid that they won't be able to see things properly due to me reacting harshly to it. I gag harshly as soon as I reach anything even slightly back my throat so this isn't fun for me. So, now I'm sitting here unsure if I dare to even go through with it or if I should demand to get a later appointment at a bigger hospital instead where I can get proper aids. They generally never anesthetize adults here in Sweden for this stuff, only children might get it. Of course adults can too if they're too afraid. But almost everyone has to do it with at most some numbing throat spray and maybe sedating medicine. If I don't even get sedating medicine, I might just chicken out because of my previous experience. These videos just make me recall the experience clearer. At least the examination is fast. I'll at least ask the clinic to see if what my doctor said is really true. I don't see why someone who's obese can't get at least some numbing mouth spray and light sedation.
Experiencing stomach growling and hunger so wanted to see what the inside of my stomach was doing found this not quite an explanation for stomach grumbling but interesting none the less
This video makes me feel sooo much better...I have a gastroscopy on Monday.Atleast now I know it won't be painful and absolutely no needles will be involved😀(happy for that!) Thanks doc✨
You might feel something being taken off in rare cases but it doesn’t hurt. Just the feeling that something is being removed. The biopsy forceps are teeny tiny little graspers, on the screen it’s all magnified x8 so it looks a lot worse than it is.
@@justthetexan9961 you're almost never asleep for this procedure I believe. Probably only for children or people with intense phobias. Generally only a local anesthetic and sometimes sedation is used, as he mentioned in the video.
Thank you Stephen. When I have some free time I would like to narrate footage I have from previous colonoscopies as well as bronchoscopies just like this video. It’s what you would get if you were a medical student or resident standing beside me in the endoscopy suite.
Amazing video! I was wondering if the stomach acid effects the scope itself? Is that why you had a puff of air while you were going through the stomach acid, To keep it away from the scope?
I hate the way the inside of the body looks to be honest, all these folds and contractions make me dizzy, but this video was so interesting and beginner-friendly with its explanations, I had to see it through to the end!
I am currently suffering from NSAIDS induced chronic gastritis that has been going on for 4 weeks now despite stopping NSAIDS. I think the Dr. will recommend this test after we tried other stuff
Hi Doctor Moran, I'm due to have this procedure done on Saturday and I'm very scared to say the least. I had my first procedure done in 2015 with no sedation. I have a phobia of choking and not being able to breath but I'm also scared of the sedation as I have a fast heart rate naturally. Would you recommend with or without sedation? I'm in the UK. Thank you!
Fantastic video. I'm having difficulty swallowing and booked myself for a Gastroscopy. Can you please let me know if I can ask my Gastro to look at my epiglottis too? I suspect I have a huge candidiasis after contracting Covid back in December. My stomach and esophagus have not recovered since :-(
I always take a detailed look at the upper airway including the epiglottis. I have diagnosed 3 or 4 cases of upper airway cancer as well as a number of benign conditions over the years. This is an important part of the examination. You should address your concerns to your physician.
@@MedicinewithDrMoran thank you so much for your quick answer. I will definetely ask my Gastro to check it. I love your channel. I'm a new subscriber by the way.
Nice video, thank you for sharing. What is the white film lining on the inner wall of the esophagus? It is an aging product or normal seen also in youngsters/kids?
Having had this done a couple of times I am wondering if normally, you go "all the way in", meaning all the way to the duodenum first, then on the return portion, look up at the fundus and take biopsies? Or do you usually take the biopsies on the way in and observe the fundus then go on to the duodenum?
Yes, we normally go all the way down into the duodenum first and then on withdrawing the scope look at all the areas. The same thing occurs during a colonoscopy, we do are looking on the way out. Thanks for commenting Shawn.

Man, I know you said they biopsy is painless but I can't help but cringe every time
Good comment, FYI, none of my unsedated patients have ever complained or groaned when biopsies have been taken.
You might feel something being taken off in rare cases but it doesn’t hurt. Just the feeling that something is being removed. The biopsy forceps are teeny tiny little graspers, on the screen it’s all magnified x8 so it looks a lot worse than it is.
