Yeah! I got up at 4:00 am...to finish the prep...I was crying by the end of it! It is DISGUSTING! I had to bite a lime slice after everytime I drank it...ending up barfing...gah...AND if they would tell you what color you are looking for I would NOT have had to do the morning prep! Bastards!
My prep was perfect! THANK GAWD!
I had a terrific nurse, but I told her I was freaking because of the IV...my veins hide...they hid. She tried the right side, nope, no go...then heated up my left arm and got it to finally go in a vein! ROLLING EYES! ALWAYS BAD!!!
I loved my doctor! She was very nice and explained a lot. Since I have IBS she decided to do two biopsies, one on the left side and one on the right side to check for a type of colitis that with someone with IBS can be overlooked.
I was SO out of it, my body doesn't tolerate drugs well, so she added an anti-nausia med in my meds. The nurse AFTER the surgery (not the one during) was not helpful at all...I don't even know how I got dressed let alone walked out without my shoes on!
WGB stopped at a Starbucks got me a Tuxedo coffee (which I haven't ordered in YEARS, but some how in my stupor remembered it, got me a breakfast item and scones...and I have NO memory of this at all...I layed out on the couch and was out all day ... I am writing this several days after! Friday was also spent on the couch where I slept most of the day away in my pjs and only took a shower because WGB told me I stunk! ah true love!
Most of the weekend I have spent walking bent over and wondering if all was ok with the biopsies because I fricken HURT! But seeing the photo of the way your colon goes I now understand that exactly where I am hurting is most like the places she did take the biopsy.
Just need time to heal.

The good news:
cancer! Whoot! AND another 10 years without having to have one of these bad boys again! So I am following through on all the things I need to do to take care of myself and fulfill THIS years word which is CLEAN. Clean up my health, clean up my finances, clean up my house...all that CLEAN!
So I am hoping that tomorrow and the rest of the week at work isn't too bad...I wasn't able to make it through the last few days without flaking on the couch and doing nothing!
