I have an appoinment at the Gastroenterologist’s tommorrow, what should I expect?

Question

Its my first ever aptmnt and Im really scared/nervous. What should I expect him to do on the first visit? Most of my worries are because Im really self concious and I dont really want any ’strange’ tests. Any info or help is great thanks!

Answer 1

Been there done that many times. You'll go over you medical history, and go over any medicines you are on. You'll discuss your diet. You won't have any tests done at your first appt. He'll decide then what tests you'll need at a later time.
