I finally took the plunge and let them schedule me for the big C. I had been putting that one off for some time.
I took my Doculax 2 days before, went on a clear liquid diet the day before and drank all my joy juice within the 2 hr. time period they told me, which, because of the Gastroparesis and my slow moving stomach was a miserable experience. (I sat around with the equivalent of a watermelon in my belly for quite some time, several hours). Then finally it began to move and I pooped all night, up until the next morning when it was time to go in for the procedure.
I go in, get prepped, take a little nap, wake up expecting it all to be over with only to be faced with....We have to do it again in 4 weeks.
WHAT???!!!!
Seems they couldn't see anything. How could they not see anything? There couldn't possibly have been anything left inside! Apparently there was though so I have to do that all over again this time on a 2 day clear liquid diet and this time I don't have to rush all the liquid down I can drink it over a period of 3 or 4 hrs.
My lovely other had to talk me into committing to doing it again 'cause I was like, Oh Hell No!
Then he says "It's official, you're full of crap".
Thanks Hunney.
