Not really Thailand related coz I'm in Perth now. Recently I've had trouble swallowing stuff on the last occasion a bit of meat was stuck there for a couple of days I could get a bit of water past the obstruction but it wasn't going down . Day 3 I drank sips of cooking oil and it eventually slid down but this was alarming to me because it's not the first time so I sought out a specialist who booked me In for a gastroscopy in a few weeks time. At the same time my results came back from the national bowel cancer screening dept that send you a kit in the mail for all Australians over 55 every 3 years you simply take a dump stick it in the container and post it back. " brilliant" my result came back as positive for fecul blood occult and they recommended a colonoscopy. I got in touch with theclinic doing the gastroscopy and asked if both could be done at the same time
