Colonoscopy … Nothing To Worry About
Well, today was the big “C” day … Colonoscopy … and I am happy to report it wasn’t nearly as bad as I expected it would be. All that wasted dread and the worst part of it all turned out to be drinking down the salty brine the night and morning before.
I arrived on time, put my cute little hospital gown on, and they hooked up an IV and wheeled me into the room for the procedure where I heard this conversation:
Anesthesiologist:: “I’m going to give her a little extra because she takes Trazadone for fibromyalgia.”
Doctor: “That will be fine.”
Nurse: “Mrs. Henke, it’s time to wake up and go home.”
And that’s about as long as it all seemed to me. I will never be nervous about that procedure again but I’m still happy I don’t need to do it until 2018.
