[cancer] The saucer brought me home, colonoscopy all good
Colonoscopy this morning. The (important) good news, as calendula_witch explains here is that I’m all normal. No polyps, no nothing. I don’t need another one for three years. The (transient) bad news is that I am as fatigued now post-procedurally as I was during some of the worst of chemo. My recovery climbout from sedation or anaesthesia is always much longer than the norm. calendula_witch is here at Nuevo Rancho Lake keeping an eye on me.

I stopped myself from telling you, prior to yours, that when I had my colonoscopy (I have colitis) it was getting close to the end of December and the doctor was in a rush to get it done so he could get to a Xmas party so did not sedate me properly. I felt every little bit of it and it hurt like HELL!! I was in so much pain even the nurse was in tears.
Such good news – you are on the road to recovery.
