I just went for my Adulting Grand Master badge and scheduled my first colonoscopy. Yippee skippee.
Gunn: You saying popping mama threw you a beating? Lorne: Kid Vicious did the heavy lifting. Cordy just mwah-ha-ha'd at us.
'Underneath'
Spike's Bitches 49: As usual, I'm here to help you, and I... are you naked under there?
Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Our wings are not tired.
Well done with the adulting there! I did my first (and last) this year. I figure last because if no issues the protocol is 10 years, and then I'll be way old and not going to bother.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I'm hoping the turd-inna-box thing I've seen ads for takes off in lieu of more invasive colonoscopies.

I asked about that, and my doctor said they weren't as accurate so he couldn't recommend it. I was, well, bummed.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Yeah, you do the dipstick thing, and if it's clear you don't need the 'scopy. I had my first 'scopy about a year ago, with bonus endoscopy (the ER staff called the combo procedure a "spinner", hee!) and they found *nothing*. My PCP is pushing for another 'scopy and I'm side-eyeing her, bigtime.

Day 5 of migraine. But tomorrow I get the blessed Botox shots.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I need my first next year, thanks to a family history of polyps. Thanks Mom!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I hope the botox does the job for you, Atropa. May your pain ease soon.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Good luck, Atropa.
I sure hope my PCP is down with the alternative to colonoscopy.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I really hope it helps, Atropa.
