What Causes Severe Fatigue Along With Nausea And Excessive Burping?

I had an upper GI with a small bowel follow-through on Thursday and since that evening i have felt horrible. Extremely fatigued, sick to my stomach and constantly burping. I have had a few bowl movements with traces of the barrium. I have some abdominal pain. Is this normal?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Yes, it may be due to barium. It is a mechanism through which body is excreting out barium.

If you feel nauseated and frequent burping, then you can take a Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs).

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Somaiya Sultana
