My wife always wanted McDonalds cheese burgers. Her surgeon would typically mouth "NO" at me. Most times she ended up with broth and rice.

Mmmm.... I could go for a McDonald's cheeseburger about now.....

I'm home, had a good nap, and will probably take another.

Had some apple sauce packets in the rig to eat on the way home, and also hit McDonalds for Egg McMuffins too.

Procedure went well enough, need a follow up probe in 3 years for a spot or two they want to keep a watch on, not bad for a 60 year old fart.

Staff was super nice, worse part (other than continued cramping from the purgative) was the 1/2 wait in the prep room.  I came out of the sedation apparently really fast (I'm thinking my doper history to the rescue sort of thing) and was coherent enough to be let go home almost immediately.

First time I have EVER been wheel chaired out of a hospital, the nurse claimed it was 'policy', I found it humiliating and a craven ploy towards aggravating my geriatric bratitude.

Did you get pictures or a DVD of the event? If you did I think they need to be posted in a thread of their own.

I have some inner pics. Undistinguishable from any other colon pic on any med web site.

I did get a thumbs up on my clean out . . . .

Butt, it's your colon pics. We could have some fun!

Is "thumbs up" some kind of pun?

For a period of several hours I was poopless.

I'm sure CL will be confusticated.

First time since the blood sugar finding I find myself CRAVING sweets.

And mean old me, the house is pretty bare of such contraband . . .

. . . except for some home made cookies I've been passing out as a seasonal perk.


I just inhaled 3 of 'em.

Nom nom nom.
