Colonoscopy OVER!!!!
On the day before my colonoscopyI began preparation . I did'nt eat any solid food--all day. I had chick broth(no fat) that tasted like water with less flavor . Took my med's and drank 32 gallons of prep and it tasted like goat spit(I think) with a hint of lemon. They said I would have loose bowels so I stayed close to the toilet. That was like telling me if I jump off the roof I might hi the ground. I sat on the toilet sooooo long I felt like I needed a seat belt. When I thought there could not be anything left I had to drink more of that wonderful lemon stuff again. I started getting rid of food that I havent even eaten yet. After a action packed day and evening I finally got to sleep. Bridget came at the crack of dawn and we headed to the clinic.I was very nervous,at the clinic as I had to sign so many forms out that I thought I was going to die on the spot. Next came the dressing gown. Why they call it a gown I have no idea as I felt more naked then I did naked! The nurse put a needle in my arm and I thought I would faint but I was already laying down. When they wheeled me into th procedure room I looked all over for the 17,0000000 foot tube they would use but they kept it hidden. They said do not close your eyes as the music was playing "Close To You" and before I knew it they were waking me up and asking me how I felt??? I was feeling just fine because it was all over and I had passed the test with flying colores.
