That's what I'm here for, crisis prevention. ;)

Lol, well thank gawd someone is!

Ah while we are at it. The camera may have went in the nose not the mouth. Very strange feeling when the doc does that. My guess is you don't gag that way.

Anyway, this blond had surgery and she asked if she could resume a normal sex life. The doc said "sure" but was very confused because he never had that question asked after a tonsilectomy.

I had it done twice, in September and in December. In Chicago, the tube and camera go in via the mouth.

Ha, ha! Before my lumpectomy, I asked my doctor if I would be able to do back-flips after surgery and healing. He said yes. I said, "Wow! Cool! I can't now."

:D that was brilliant WG :D

Fantabulous! I LURVE it!

Love the joke. Can't spread the rep.

I did have a doc put a scope down my nose and look down my throat totally awake. Odd feeling.

Hmmm, after thinking about it, I vaguely remember that being done to me in the ER, without anesthesia. Can't remember why, but it wasn't an esophagogastroduodenoscopy. Yes, it was painless but a weird feeling.

There are some very brave people here! I think they would have to strap me to the gurney to do any sort of invasive type of examination!

Thanks!

Why does the "weaker sex'' handle these things so much better than you hunter-killer types?

Knock me out and you can do anything you want. That's my motto. ;)

Weaker, schmeaker. We have ways to alleviate pain, USE Them! The only time you shouldn't is when you can't get to the hospital. The stoics normally make themselves worse.

Still pretty weak and tired but the doctor said it could take a few weeks for the iron pills to make a difference.

How are you sweetie? :)

Alty, did you read your FB? I had a dream about you.

Yes, I wake up every 3 hours crying, I crave milk and have to use the bathroom.

Wait... no... that's a baby.:o

I have it under control... ish. ;)

Hey Alty. I'm overdue for a colonoscopy. Can I volunteer to be your roomie. We can have one together.

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:

Hey, I agree with you. Just wanted to give you some encouragement. Failed. Oh well.

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'm an experienced colonoscopy victim, ooops, I mean patient. I could help you with details and answer questions you may have.

We could start a club!

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. :)
