Colonoscopy prep is one of the most unsexy things a person can ever experience. Spell check is telling me that unsexy is not a word... well I hate to break it to you spell check but that is exactly how I felt. Between starvation induced delirium and sedatives I don't remember much of Tuesday. I'm fine with that.
Wednesday morning began with a trip to the ER for the two year old. She and big sister got into a fight over a toy and little sister ended up with a nursemaid's elbow. Wednesday ended with a trip to CVS in which I had to convince the Pharmacist that when he filled my Prozac prescription he gave me 20 pills instead of 30... Yes, I was the lady insisting she had been short changed on the crazy pills. Luckily I only had to discuss the matter with 3 people before they gave me more pills and sent me on my way.
Thursday brought fantastic news -- All biopsies were negative!
And while I am obviously happy to not have gremlins living in my intestines it still leaves me asking - Why do I hurt All The Time?...

Unsexy is a word. As a recent survivor of colonoscopy prep myself, I have to agree with you. Oddly enough, I had hardly any pain during the colonoscopy prep. No Food=No Pain.
ReplyDeleteI passed on the sedatives though because I wanted to watch it on the TV screen.
Congrats on the neg biopsy!
You're right. Unsexy is TOTALLY a word and spell check is mouthy. I am so glad I went with sedation. I woke up from pain at one point during the procedure so a note was made in my chart to use anesthesia next time. Fun :/ I checked out your blog and I am SERIOUSLY contemplating a Paleo diet. Going to take the weekend to formulate a plan.
