A member asked:
I will shortly have an endoscopy with biopsy and 3 weeks later an oesophegal ph study.as both involve a tube down the throat i am worried that the biopsy wound wont be healed when they do the oesophegal ph. is it safe to have both so close together?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Three weeks is enough for the biopsy wound to be covered with epithelium and it would not be affected by the second study.
