...and the worst part is how it all looks like the Grand Canyon onscreen!

Sorry to hear you are suffering. I hope that things get better and that you get relief from the pain in the @$$!

You're a good soldier to come and post on something like this and I hope it helps more people who have to go through it to be more comfortable with the procedure after reading your story!

I'm glad that test is over Barb. I hope with all the procedures and stuff you'll be a regular gal, if you know what I mean.

Barb,
I am glad it's over and you can rest now. I think a Sigmoidoscopy is worse than a Colonoscopy. The Sigmoid one I call "Rotor Router", like the drain company and that machine. I really think then should sedate people with that test.

I get my Colonoscopy later next week. Having just relapsed, and still weak and wobbly, I don't know if I can stand the prep work. Feeling pretty cruddy now, you know?

I guess I have the appointment, I should go. I know it's going to knock the crapola out of me. (pun intended)

I hope your bottom is not too sore. Feel better.

Barb!

Glad you're on the mend and the procedure went well. No C! I know about fissures, aren't they evil things?

(((Barb))) I hope you start feeling better soon. Glad to hear you don't have to have a colonoscopy and what they found is treatable.

Sorry i am late to chime in. You know I always wish the best for you. Hang in there.

I'm here too, Barb!! hope you are doing better!!

good thing it's snowing today and there's no school .. rest!!

How did I manage to miss this thread?

I'm so sorry for what you've been going thru, Barb, but glad there's no sign of cancer. Whew!

Like tkrik said, at least you've got something that's treatable.

Are you feeling any better now?

Best wishes to you, my friend. Hang in there!
