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.
'Never Leave Me'
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.
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.
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.
I need my first next year, thanks to a family history of polyps. Thanks Mom!
I hope the botox does the job for you, Atropa. May your pain ease soon.
Good luck, Atropa.
I sure hope my PCP is down with the alternative to colonoscopy.
I really hope it helps, Atropa.
MY HEAD DOESN'T HURT ANYMORE! I WAS ABLE TO BEND OVER THE TUB AND COAT MY HAIR WITH DYE!
Getting a dilute variant of a toxin injected into my muscles is great! Science is awesome!
