Hello everyone.
I had my colonoscopy yesterday. The procedure went rather well, didnt fall asleep like everyone told me I would do but I certainly wasnt in any discomfort.
I ended up having one polyup that was removed, several non bleeding ulcers in the large intestine, and the place where the small intestine ends is almost completely closed shut from inflamation (she couldnt get the scope through at all) and is bleeding. It wasnt exactly what I expected to hear. the CT scan had remarked it as being mild and it ends up being pretty severe.
Was put on predisone for 3 weeks and then will start an antiinflamatory to be on daily to make sure it doesnt come back. I go back to the Dr in 3 weeks.
Whew, this is all just alot of news for me...trying to get my mind around it all.
Just thought i would let you all know how it went
