Well I've got my colonoscopy in 4 hours. And wow the prep sucks so bad!! It was like getting the flu. I forgot how crappy it is. Uc sucks!!!! Nothing like spending your days off pooping your brains out and feeling like you have the flu. Then watching your bf eat a delicious sandwich in front of you and complain how he knows I'll freak out about it. Well maybe I don't get why he likes to throw it In my face when he's eating yummy food lol. Can't wait to stop feeling crapty!!!

hang in there chrissy - enjoy the table nap and you'll feel much better when you wake up = or at least at that point, you probably won't care how you feel -

just curious - how many scopes have you had prior to this one ?

Mal- I know he gets really weird about my uc sometimes. Like he likes to eat good stuff in front of me
Which I can't understand. It does Piss me off lol.

Results are my doctor wants to add remicade. He said it was a mixed bag like enough inflammation to add remi. But it wasn't eay horrible. I always ask him about surgery and he said im not there yet and he will tell me if I get to that point lol.

I make my husband eat out on my prep days or else eat in the basement with the door closed (it's his man cave, so don't picture him down in a dark dungeon with spiders etc, LOL! I'm not that bad).

Glad you got through it!
