Endoscopy/Colonoscopy on Tues. Guess what Monday is for?
 

OMG tomorrow is my "prep" day. Who thinks up these torturous routines?

I will admit its better than it was even 2 years ago when the DH had his done. You used to drink that liquid stuff that left an after taste for a year. Yick, that stuff was nasty! Now they give you dulcolax in the AM and then at noon, you take miralax every 1/2 hour until the 2 week bottle is gone. 14 doses! This should be fun! :o

My tummy is so tender, so upset, so nauseous, and so unhappy that I cant even imagine how far over the edge this will take me.

So, as you are going about your Monday, say a lil prayer that I havent balled up into a corner sucking my thumb and crying. I am so nervous!

I am hoping to avoid that big surgery where they want to take out 3 to 4 feet of my intestine. I asked the GI guy to go look, and see what shape everything is in. I hope I can avoid surgery, or at least get some answers.

Good luck with that, Dej...yucky and ouchy. I hope everything comes out all right. :rolleyes:

Will be keeping you in my thoughts on Tuesday..:hug:

Good Luck Dej!:hug:

(((Dej))) Wishing you luck tomorrow on the prep and will keep you in my prayers on Tuesday.:hug: Let us know how you are doing when you can.

:hug:Dejibo:hug: I have one coming up soon too. Just a checkup one thankfully. Hope all goes well and you avoid surgery!

Oh no! Well, i will be thinking about ya as they are redoing all the kidney/liver/ bladder testing for me tomorrow... My mom just had to have the yucky colonoscopy...they made her drink the yucky stuff... I think she is still tasting it.

Good Luck tomorrow!

Might need one of these!

well, Monday is here! I dont mind Tuesday, as I am getting good drugs, and will be asleep for the thing. The endo I will be awake for, but its just a gagging festival. Even with numb spray, I gag. Then they will blissfully knock my fanny into la la land.

its today that has my nerves on end. I have taken my dulcolax tabs, and will start on the miralax soon. My tummy is already bloated, swollen and tender. This should make me cry. I am not looking forward to drinking this stuff, but am looking forward to hearing some answers. I have given my DH a list of questions to ask the MD when its all done. I hope I will be too dopey to care.

Thanks for the hugs and prayers, they really do mean alot.

:hug:

May you be too dopey to care, as you said, but may it all give you the best possible answers.

Aw Dej,

I hate that stuff too. I hope your tests will turn out ok and no surgery will be necessary. :hug:
