well now...wasn't that just gobs of fun!! so, my goal was to begin at noon and see what happened. WHOOOOOEEEYYYYY!! i finished the gallon by 1:30 and just want to add that it is MUCH easier to drink with the flavoring in it. the pharmacist recommended that i try it without any flavor first and that was simply not doable. a couple funny things to mention: it moves so quickly that i drank it ice cold and it came out ice cold. and i think that is physically the coldest i have ever been...and i''m from BUFFALO!!
now, i am waddling around the house, hungry and ready to do this thing!! |

We've been having a ton of rain here in AZ, too, Tommi! And I would be lying if I said I wasn't loving every second of it!
I am wonderfully happy that experience is all over. Although, it wasn't nearly as bad as I expected it to be. The nurses were all so wonderful and kind. The only negative was that I had asked a couple of times who all would be in the room during the procedure and both times was assured that there would be only two female nurses and my doctor (who is also a woman)...and as they were injecting the sleepy drugs into my IV, in walks a man. I remember feeling a bit shaky but then the drugs kicked in and off to sleep land I went. |

congrats on getting thru that. I know the prep is the worst part. I remember how nice the drugs are---my nurse was very pretty so I might have said something innapropriate---oh well--she is probably used to that.
I will keep you in my thoughts til Friday when you get the GOOD NEWS!!!! Jeano

Tommi, you crack me up!! I think most of my anxiety around this whole procedure was about how many people would be looking at my pooper! In my mind there was going to be like 30-50 people in the room with me...all pointing and gasping and laughing. One might say I have a wee butt-hole complex. |

My GI guy is this sweet, cute nerdy guy who has a huge smile and just randomly blushes for no reason. After the colonoscopy as my g.f. was standing next to me and he was giving me the results I said, "You are really cute. If I wasn't gay I would be into you" (or something along those lines). Poor guy got all embarrassed and blushed (I think he did, anyway...I was all drugged up!). And imagine this, I did not remember I had said that until a couple of months after it happened! My g.f. had never mentioned it.

Update
Just wanted to mention that my partner's mother's surgery went well and she is now home. They say that it went well. They will get the results of the biopsy on the lymph nodes next Tuesday.

My surgery is scheduled for December 9th! I am to be an early AM case...sooo....I will have an Exploratory Laparoscopy with Colectomy (colon resection) via open abdomen AND a Total Hystero via same incision! The Gastro Oncologist is going in first, then when he is done, the Gynie Oncologist will do her hystero magic! I will be in the hospital for 7 to 10 days. Rather than try to update each personally, UPDATES will be posted here!!! I am so going to kick this bugger's royal ass...mess with me..I will show it who is Alpha here!!! <smiles>
PS I have the lovely good luck to have to do a second colonoscopy the 29th. This time I get day one a bottle of mag. citrate, day two a GALLON of GoLytely! I will be having a "GoLytely" martini party..and will gladly share a glass with any of you....smiles...have an awesome day...Clay

7 years after ~ Total Radical Hysterctomy, OOpherectomy, and 16 lymph nodes later
Cancer is a pesky stop along our long road of life. In the wake of all the tests, and surgery and scary nights and days, just know there are millions of cancer survivors here on Planet Earth. "The Big C" is no longer the death sentence it once was for everyone that had a diagnosis.We stand tall (well ~ some of us don't stand tall as others but we think we do* ) We have been there, done that, and moved on.
For those of us, and those that have loved ones going through a scary time , and for those caring about and for the folks that need your love and encouragement I send Big Baskets of Love and candy and flowers. claybaby, you are gonna be squeaky clean. So, you must have a while to get ready for the recovery at home process. Get a maid. Get a cook. Get comfy jammies that will be easy on and off. They told me I couldn't lift anything heavier than a loaf of bread for the first several weeks and no sex****. and I was dating this beautiful, Hollywoood make-up artist, who came to take care of me post-op~~and ...well, I just knew that thing about no sex did not apply in my case* I did NOT lift any bread Quote:
And he was proud ...He probably is still sharing that story. Quote:
Quote:
Well clay, you will have the cleanest bowel that side of the Rio Grande and a grande time with all that drinkin'. Glad to see that you have two specialists doing the surgery. Quote:
Hey Jeano , we'll keep the fireplace stoked and the warm comfy wishes flowing. Glad to see you here. Tommi |

Just a pre-holiday update....
Just got off the phone with my mother. She cheerfully tells me that the mass is gone, but that she forgot to pick up the written report. She also tells me that they have taken her down to 12 hours in 24 on the TPN, in part to stimulate her appetite. Her weight is up to 118. Her next appointment is December 8 with the urologist (about that kidney that was acting up)...and she has chemo before that....but now I can book her flight for anything December 10 or after. I should feel better about all of this, except that she sounds like she's lying. I could call her doctor and ask for the truth...but I'm honestly just past it. All of our old crap is coming back up...and I'm in for a 3 or 4 month flashback of my youth. Someone please have bail money ready.
