Is Diarrhea Normal After Gastroscopy Procedure?

I had an emergency gastroscopy three days ago. Is diarrhea common in the healing process, (now eating solid foods) and how long should I wait to return to work?

I am 52 years of age. No medical history worth speaking of. No medications prescribed or other prior to the bleeding ulser and emergency surgery.



Thank you for a quick response

Hello
If you are still experiencing loose motions then better take semi solid or liquid foods. And yeah diarrhoea is a common issue. Drink fluids. It will come back to normal.
