Good afternoon everyone! Hope you all are having a good day. It is sunny but chilly here in Illinois.

Well I made it through the colonoscopy, but did have some problems. The prep was nasty as usual. Most of last night I experienced really painful muscle cramps/spasms in both of my legs and one foot. I ocasionally will get them in my leg that is stiff, but I have never felt anything this bad. My toes started cramping under on my good foot and then things just got worse. I hope it was due to a loss of fluids/ potassium or something. Then during the procedure today I woke up a few times and it hurt like ****. The doctor blamed it on the meds I am on, but I have woke up before during both a colonscopy and an endoscopy. They can't just knock me out. No wonder I do not get enough sleep. Finally, I had three polyps and he said that one of them may possbilby be pre cancerous. So now I have to wait 2 weeks before they get the lab results back. All in all the last two days have sucked and on Friday I go for a MRI.

Ok, so obviously I am feeling sorry for myself, but I will get over it.
