A member asked:
I had an upper endoscopy friday the doctor took two biopsies what is he looking for? also i am in extreme pain and vomiting what should i do?

Two issues: You should contact your doctor about the pain and vomiting and if it is too severe , go to the nearest emergency room. The biopsy is to ascertain the cause of your stomach problems, it is likely to be to look for infection with a stomach bacterium H pylori. Wish you good health.
