Well today I had the singular experience of a colonoscopy. The worst part was fasting for 36 hours. The other part might have been worse, but they gave me some real good drugs and I apparently snored through most of the procedure. They removed 3 polyps which they will biopsy. The Doc said the color was good so just expected good results. I will know where things stand definitively in a couple of weeks.
So after exiting surgery I had a double Whopper, fries, coke, and large chocolate milkshake. Ah much better. The only side effect of the procedure so far is uncontrolled flatulance. Which should makes darts tonight rather interesting. I don’t fill drugged up now, but I was warned to avoid alcohol and not to drive for 24 hours. But I will drive to work tomorrow anyway. May or may not avoid beer tonight.
I still need to report on my trip to the Philippines. Will do so this week. Promise.
Out fo now.

Hey hey. It’s a fun club to be in, isn’t it? I lost mine recently as well. The procedure drugs are definately a plus. The fasting sucked for sure, but I found the night before medicine to drink a whole lot worse. I got similar advice on the booze, but I had to only soup and bread for the rest of my day. Let’s hope for good results all round.
