I am feeling so sick right now...

I'm having a colonoscopy tomorrow. Couldn't eat all day. And just finished a 64 oz bottle of gatorade with stuff to ...uhhh...clean out my colon.
I just want tomorrow to be over with... Yep, I'm wishing my future away! Cuz, right now... I just wanna puke!

Shalom!

Good luck, Teach. That doesn't sound fun at all. :sweat

I'll be thinking of you and hoping for a fast and painless procedure.

Awww (((teach)))

Hugs and prayers going out for you....

**51anna** · 12-06-2005, 07:40 PM

Teach, I think the preparation is the worst part.

It'll all be over tomorrow.

I hope it goes well.

**historyteach** · 12-07-2005, 04:15 AM

Thanks...
3 hours to go. Then, I'll be done with it.
Ya know, I've often thought these tests were worse than what they are for! It just doesn't seem normal to me! LOL!

Shalom!

HEY TEACH,
Sounds like a big pain in the butt( no pun intended ) If it makes you feel any better, even though you are awake, you dont remember a thing. Ive had one done, and like 51anna says, the preperation is the worst part. Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!

I had one done a couple of years back and it wasn't bad at all a little uncomfortable is all. I'll be thinking of you Teach.

I'm home and fine.

I was so anxious prior to the procedure, I started weeping!

It wasn't bad; I only felt a little... pressure I guess is the best way to put it.

They removed three polops and put them in for biopsy. Depending upont those results, I'll find out what's next. The good thing is, most polops are harmless, unless they grow large prior to discovery. The doc didn't indicate that to me.

So, all is well, I guess. And it was nice to have a good piece of chicken afterwards.
My brother took me to the office where it was done, and we went to lunch afterwards. As I don't spend alot of time with this brother, it was very nice to sit and chat and share our thoughts about different things.

Thanks for all your good thoughts and wishes for me. I reallly appreciate you all so very much!

Shalom!

**Rowan** · 12-07-2005, 02:55 PM

Glad you are home and glad it went well sounds like a good day you had!
God Bless

**historyteach** · 12-07-2005, 03:09 PM

Well, Rowan,
It was definately good AFTER I left the doc's office!

Thanks again!

Oh, and I'm now one week, one day, 11 hours, 8 minutes and 39 seconds smoke free. There are 338 cigarettes not smoked, saving $93.10. Life saved: 1 day, 4 hours, 10 minutes.

Shalom!
