A member asked:

Had a colonoscopy, i have furrows in my esophagus, byopsy taken, now my throat is sore, and i am sick. normal?

Throat: Sounds like you had an upper endoscopy not a colonoscopy (or both). having a sore throat is common, being sick is not unless you have caught a cold.Call the doctor
