Bad Tummy Trouble Blogger

I haven't had much to say lately. The tummy troubles seem to have hit a nothing new point. Most days they are not too bad. More and more weeks go by where I don't go for a couple of days then make up for it all in one night. I really won't complain about that, since as we all know, it is easier to deal with tummy troubles at home than at work.

I am scheduled to have another colonoscopy on May 17. This time at the hospital so I imagine they are going to lasso the mystery bump at that time. I am not thrilled about it but maybe once that is done, doc will chill a bit.

Yep, still see her every three months if not sooner. She seems to be laying off a bit on the bloodwork but I am not sure why.

Technically, the looping and removal of the bump shouldn't be more than the average biopsy sort of thing they do routinely. Unfortunately, she seems to think there is a chance that it will perforate my intestine to remove the whole darn thing, thus the hospital thing and her anxiety. Her anxiety really isn't helping because she has never seemed less than completely confident in HER abilities to do something. So, theoretically, no pain, no recovery other than average colonoscopy, but also a higher chance than the average consent form that there will be.

Giggle about Shanghai. My doctor is concerned enough about me going to potlucks, crowds, etc. I can only imagine Shanghai. Are you thinking of taking it?
