Yesterday was terrible, just terrible! And I am not being overly dramatic here. I cannot take drugs, they just mess me up! I haven't ate anything since Wednesday evening, did my prep all day Thursday and had my colonoscopy yesterday. Just now, at 6am Saturday morning, I kept some sprite and crackers down. I tell ya, those drugs messed me up!
The good news is that she didn't really find anything wrong. There is endo on my bowels, which I may need to get taken care of eventually, but nothing else. I had a lap in 2002 & 2003 where the doctor removed endo from my bowels but it has come back. My gyno will get the report from the internist and we'll go from there. I think if I need another surgery for the endo I'll just have a hysterectomy. Three surgeries for endo in 10 years is just too much. I'll try to keep my ovaries so I don't know completely menopausal but I cannot tolerate any more surgeries. I'll have to have it laproscopically since I can't take pain meds. I hate this! Why can't I just be normal?
The ambulatory staff was just awesome yesterday. It didn't hurt that my aunt was one of the RN's so I got awesome treatment. Extra blankets, rubbing my back while I puked, lunch for my MIL. They were wonderful!
I have to thank M for posting my prayer request! I felt it, girls, and I truly needed it! I'll post more when I'm feeling better.
Long overdue final update (such a good one)!
