The status is NOT quo.

Happy scoping, Pix. Now that the yuck part is over, it's super easy, as I'm sure you know.
Yep, easy peasey. The last one I had was 25 years ago, and the sedation meds destroyed me; SO much better this time. Just woke up, and apparently everything was normal; no cancer and no polyps. Yay! The doc has promised me pill prep next time to avoid the vomiting.

Matt, so sorry to hear about the AFIB! I hope it ends up being easily fixable.

She did not miss her concert which was Wednesday. She is missing ugly sweater day. There is more fun things next week. So, I’m hoping she’s better by Monday.

Thanks Jen. Yeah, I never noticed any irregular rhythms previously and only racing heartbeat during strenuous exertion or panic attacks, so this is a new one on me. I felt absolutely fine and normal upon waking up, so hopefully it's not serious or having dangerous effects on my system.

I found out I have periods of pretty dramatic tachycardia (like going up to 220 for no reason at all for a few minutes) when I was hospitalized after gall bladder surgery. I never felt a thing. Its controlled now with medication and we monitor with tests a few times a year. It has not caused me any problems, but in time it could have caused damage. Basically, I lucked out.

Here's hoping its nothing! If not, here's hoping you dodge a bullet with a pill at bedtime.
