Default My colonoscopy

I had polyps removed today at the hospital and biospies taken of the smaller polyps.

I've really weak and unstable tonight. I threw up in the cab.

The neighbor I paid to go with me was not back in time for them to start my procedure in time and then she never came over when I got home to check on me. They gave me a double dose of sedation because was in somuch pain.

Oh Barb.....
I think they overdid it on the sedation! I just had a colonoscopy this past year and they couldn't get me to sleep because of the trazodone I take. I also had polyps taken and I turned out okay.
I am sure once all the drugs they gave you will wear off and you will feel better.

Heart Barb~

Sure hope your feeling better today. I hate those things. I'm do to have one next year. My doc puts me out too, but I didn't get sick from it. When he didn't put me out, I wasn't going to have anymore. It was very painful. It's bad not to have anyone with you too!
Takecare,
Billie

Thanks Wendy and Billie.

I feel better today but still sleepy. Wendy, they had to give me a sedative twice because the 1st dose did not work.

Dear Barb,
I am sorry that your neighbor ended up not being very nice.
You will feel better each day and the gas pains are the worst from what I hear....
hope you are feeling better soon!

Thank you Billie, Bizi, and Gaye.

My neighbor Doug I had the crush on is going back into the hospital and I just got back from there to see if I could help.
