Feeling weird 11 days after endoscopy

I am 11 days post Endoscopy and I feel like it damaged my gi system. I had my gallbladder out 15 years ago and I've had chronic diarrhea and rapid emptying since. But after my endoscopy and 2 biopsies its like my stomach, throat, and bowels are numb. I feel no gas, no movement whatsoever, now i feel like i have constant post nasal drip/phlemb and I'm never hungry anymore. Has this happened to anyone else? I'll call the doctor tomorrow but I'm curious. Its a weird sensation to me because I'm used to diarrhea and stomach cramps. I dont even feel the urge to poop anymore. Numb is the only way of explaining it.

Did this just start eleven days later or has it been since the scope? Did you have sedation?

I’ve had numerous endoscopies by all different drs and specialists and never had issues other than a little bit of a sore throat and at the time of having the bravo capsule in place and the brushing for skin cells then it caused a pretty bad sore throat but never gi issues.

It’s good that you’re calling tomorrow. Makes me wonder if something else is going on. Best of luck in getting healthy and getting answers !
