D-day approaches

Post by Bill in Oregon »

Well boys, I'm on the clear liquid diet today in prep for the hose-up-the-rose colonoscopy tomorrow morning. I'll spare ye the details, but suffice it to say I start taking the first of EIGHTEEN doses of MiraLAX at 10 this morning. Wish me luck and a clear path to the men's room ....

The prep is a LOT worse than the procedure.

Hose in the rose, classic. :lol: :lol: :lol:

For whatever reason I have been dodging the mandatory over 40 finger every time our annual army physical comes around. However I'm starting to think I need to just do it.

"The Procedure" is purely a mind game we play with ourselves because we're real men. You'll be amazed at how benign it really is.

Good luck...those results are what count!

I've got several good one liners floating around right now (no pun intended) but I'll just stick with "here's to good news!".

10-12 years ago She Who Puts Up With Me was having "regularity" issues. The off duty officer who worked security at her store told her about the citrate of magnesium and how well it worked for him. She asked how much to take and he said he drank the whole bottle.

At the time she might have been 120# and the officer was close to 300# (and well over 6' so he wasn't "fat"). Yeah, you can see where this is headed... :lol:

JUST A REMINDER AS I POSTED THIS BEFORE-- a colonoscopy is very similar to an alien abduction experience...bright lights...missing time... and you know that you've been probed... BILL, glad everything is ok, glad that we as a group are talking about this, will help the next guy... :)

A little diverticulosis. If you should ever be so unfortunate as to suffer an attack of diverticulitis you will more clearly appreciate the difference! :shock:

Glad it went well. Think fiber and smooth moves to keep the "a little diverticulosis" from becoming "a lot of diverticulosis" or worse, a diverticulitis attack (which is about the same as having an appendicitis attack - not fun).
Cheers,
Oly
