    Um, no offense KISS but I don't think having another person in the room will help. I don't even want the doctor in the room. :eek:

    No worries. ;)

    My husband asked if I wanted him to come along, my response "Remember what happened in the delivery room when Jared was being born? Do you remember almost passing out? Well I do. You're sitting in the waiting room buddy".

    I like your choice of words: Victim

    I believe the prep is worse than the procedure.

    You know in one hospital, I think it's in Texas, they have a party twice a year. People all come in to get their colonoscopies, then have treats afterward. It's really catching on in some areas.

    I'd really have to call you. There are little songs and sound effects that go along with the details. I couldn't do them justice in a post or PM.

    Oh, no, Clough! These are very special little songs, and not in the public domain.

    I'm also wondering if there is a particular diet that you need to be on, Alty.

    Like foods that you need to be eating?

    I had a blood test today. My hemoglobin has gone up a teensie little bit but the doctor did say that it could take weeks before there's a significant change so he's not too worried.

    I go back on March 30 for a complete physical and more blood work etc. then the big testing on April 6.

    I'm still really run down but that's understandable. I've been taking it easy, taking my pills, eating a lot of iron rich foods and being a good girl. ;)

    Thanks everyone for asking. :)
