Colonoscopy 8:35am (Procedure day)

Man, last night was rough. I only slept 2 hours at a time. The rest of the night was pooping. I had to wake up and take one more dose of laxative. I don't know how the expect anything to be left. It's like I gave myself the stomach flu on purpose. No toilet paper is soft enough anymore. My poor tender hiney. On the upside I'm not hungry this morning. This is surprising since I last at an egg and a piece of toast 28 hours ago. My last real meal was a burger 36 hours ago. I guess you can starve yourself full. Who knew? Procedure is set for 1:30 this afternoon.

Colonoscopy, it's done.

Well I got my procedure today and I'm still a little loopy. They have me Fentanyl and Versed as a sedative. They couldn't give me the full dose because my blood pressure was a little low, so it was uncomfortable for a few minutes. Otherwise it went okay. They did remove one polyp and I have to wait 7-10 days for the biopsy report but they said it looked okay.

Now for the next 24 hours I'm supposed to take it easy. They also suggested I don't post on social media, sign any documents, or buy anything.

On the drive home I got Chic Fil-A and only ate a few fries and 6 nuggets. I lost 5 pounds in 24 hours. Sheesh.
