Air in Lower stomach/Upper GI requested

HI all.. I went back 8 pages and didn't see anything similar.

First, I have already contacted Dr C.. I am probably driving him nuts.. hell, I am driving myself nuts.

I had a CT scan done Monday with my PCP. I sent one of the pictures to Dr C to look at. He said my LOWER stomach looked distended with air and wanted me to get an upper GI next week.

1. Anyone had a distended LOWER stomach. The upper looks fine. I am not vomiting at all. (infact, I never have) I dont even drink carbonated beverages, ever.

2. How awful is an upper GI?

Thanks
Amanda

An upper GI is basically a barium swallow, you've had those.. right?
