Been AWOL


Been out of it for a couple of days.  I had a colonoscopy and endoscopy on Monday.  Lovely!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Colon cancer runs in my family so I get a colonoscopy every 3-5 years.  I had an endoscopy to follow up on my Celiac Disease.  As many of you know I have an autoimmune disease called Celiac.  In simplest terms my body over reacts when I eat gluten found in wheat, rye and barley.  It destroys the villi in my small intestines which are responsible for absorbing nutrients. 

This time they only found one polyp in my colon.  They unfortunately found something in my esophagus too.  They said it is common but they biopsied it anyway.  It will be a few days until I get the results.

I usually have these procedures done at HFH in West Bloomfield.  This was my first time with a new doctor and hospital.  Man did they get me in and out of there.  I registered at 7am and in the surgery room by 8 and in my car on the way home at 9:30.  I barely remember anything.  The nurses kept talking to me and I don’t know if I repsonded or not but I do remember asking questions.  They couldn’t find Gregg and the kids.  Finally they paged Gregg and I was on my way home.  I can’t beleive they wheelchaired me out of the hospital.  I’m used to sleeping it off and then walkin out.  It was definitely weird but hey Gregg was happy.  He didn’t have to entertain the boys in the hospital anymore.

Well more later the demons at the HEB parking lot are calling me and Cooper!
