So, you're having an endoscopy with the little camera-pill thing? I'm sure everything will turn out fine. If you're having digestive problems, you may have something as simple as IBS or something of the sort. (Sorry, I'm sort of a nerd when it comes to medicine. lol.)

Anyhow, I hardly blame you for being apprehensive about taking so many medications. I agree with your doctor to an extent, in that sometimes the available drugs aren't used to their full potential. However, I also believe that there are a lot of doctors out there who will happily over-medicate you without fully weighing the pros & cons involved when you consider the possible side-effects, long-term effects, ect. Be careful with that. My best advice to you would be to do your own research on the meds. In this day & age, you've got to be your own advocate when it comes to medicine! :)

Hope you get to feeling better.

Here's a crappy picture of a representation of what I think your perception of my cat is going to be.

GO MS PAINT!
