    Ditto. Feel much less violated after getting the dreaded finger wave.

    I will have to remember this. I had my first one this year, had to drink the 2 gallons of sewer water, swore I'd never do it again.

    Got that right. My stuff was euphemistically called "Go-litely" and as I'm sure others can attest, there is nothing "light" about it! :blush2:

    I had a colonoscopy and though I was relaxed, I was conscious the whole time. The doctor didn't seem concerned about it.

    Wellllllll... the plot thickens.

    The colonoscopy part is fine. But, they also did an upper GI endoscopy, and removed a tiny polyp from my stomach.

    Everything was fine for five days. I felt great. Then, I woke up feeling awful on Tuesday. I spent most of the day in bed.

    About five that evening, I started hurling blood -- lots of it. :eek6: My neighbor took me to the ER, and I've been in the hospital since. With luck, I can go home tomorrow.

    I never quite understood the reasoning for upper GI scope. I should have said, "NO." :mad2:
