I have recently had a ileoscopy and now need to have a "gastrograph enema" what exactly is it?

I am worrying myself sick over having this done but need to before I can have the ileostom reversed. Hope there is someone out there who can help.
gastrograph (gas·tro·graph) (gas´tro-graf) [gastro- + -graph] an apparatus for recording the motions of the stomach. This is the only definition I could find in a medical dictionary. I would have to say that an gastrograph enema would measure the volume and motility of the bowel. Hope this helps.

What's wrong with asking the person who told you that you needed the procedure?
