my bravo test - Acid Reflux / GERD Message Board

I got my results yesterday. Everything was pretty much "within normal limits" I dont even know what that means! He didint even give me the results face to face-over the phone and left a message on my answering machine. Whatever.

How long can the bravo capsule stay in place? I had it put in last Tuesday and I still feel a lot of pain when I swallow down around my stomach so I assume it is still in place?

So that feeling of having choking (ok, not choking but having to swallow hard) is normal for a while? I don't remember that the first time around either. I know the feeling started right after he put the capsule in so I know thats got to be what the problem is.
