This is ongoing, I have been unable to get any treatment at my local hospital, the William Harvey Hospital. Many years ago I swallowed a 50p coin, which after some research recently came to light I now believe may still be there.
I have tried and keep trying on numerous occasions to get treatment for this and then basically made out to be some sort of imbecile.
Unfortunately, it seems, a fifty pence piece is too large to pass through the pyloric sphincter and if it did it will then not tumble through the duodenum which is smaller than the diameter of the coins.
I believe that the failure to reference research published in 2004 has resulted in substandard imaging, as the coin erosion releases NiCl². Which will induce common and Compton scatter, lowering the contrast of the images.
I have tried on numerous occasions to resolve this issue, but these are still ongoing to no avail. My last visit to A&E with imaging showing what I believe to be the coin lying in a lateral orientation to the imaging sensor, and measuring the exact dimensions of the type of coin, was dismissed by the doctor viewing the scan, who referred to their level of qualification and inferred that I shouldn't question them.
This made me feel that there was no point in trying to highlight the issues with this doctor, as they would never listen.
I have spent several years studying propagation within the electromagnetic spectrum which involve studying the effects on scans that I have noted.
When swallowing occurs releasing water soluble NiCl², this will be absorbed into the surrounding tissue raising its density.

The case above shows the migration of a coin into the gastric mucosa, as I have tried to highlight with healthcare professionals for the last 2-years to no avail
I feel that these medical facts and the pieces of research I have shown are repeatedly ignored.
