Hello myLot! I'm back from the doctor, and the one I saw (not my regular provider) said that the sonogram showed that I have a tiny benign cyst on my liver, but that's not what was causing my pain. She sent me for blood test...

Colonoscopy & Endoscopy done....I spilled apple juice everywhere.

****DANIELLE**** @VivaLaDani13 (60812) • Perth, Australia 13 Apr 24

I am happy that the Colonoscopy and Endoscopy are completed. I was very nervous about the whole thing. I was worried about the procedures itself but was worried for the results. I just kept on thinking that something had to be...

Colonoscopy & Endoscopy today. I'm nervous....

****DANIELLE**** @VivaLaDani13 (60812) • Perth, Australia 10 Apr 24

I'm sorry I'm still quite behind here. I will catch up as soon as I can. Besides not being here for such a long time, this month has been really busy and stressful with tests. Not long ago I had the scary MRI and now today it's...

A heartfelt THANK YOU for all of the kind wishes as I endured the colonoscopy (more specifically, the prep). So….that’s that for three years. Yes, it’s down to three now instead of five. “Thanks, Mom.”...

One Week to Go!

Four Walls @FourWalls (86574) • United States 10 Jul 23

This time next week I’ll be in a really crappy mood. I’ll be doing my colonoscopy prep. Sure, it’s a joke. Who likes the colonoscopy prep? Well, masochists, I guess…but other than that… This...

Review time: Colonoscopy

Faye @FayeHazel (40230) • United States 18 Nov 22

Hi all, I did put this out on social media as a sort of PSA - I know it has always comforted me when I know about things from people who have done them. So I figure it's sort of my duty if I can help encourage even one person to...

Getting Ready for Roto-Rooter

Faye @FayeHazel (40230) • United States 15 Nov 22

No, not the actual service that cleans out your sewers. I turned 40 earlier this year and because my mom, her dad, his sister had colo-rectal cancer that puts me in a higher risk group. So I get to do the screening for the...

I Need a Covid Test

DianneN @DianneN (254949) • United States 16 Jun 21

The invitation has nothing to do with my discussion, but the Ice Princess designed it herself and insisted the printer use pink and gold, her favorite colors. She is such a pip! Anyway, I put off a colonoscopy during the...

Back After A Long Break

Arthur Chappell @arthurchappell (44941) • Preston, England 13 Feb 21

Gosh I have been away much longer than I thought. Thank you to everyone for messages of concern and worry for me. Initially I drifted away as there was very little traffic on Mylot, and in fact there still isn’t really. The...

My husband won't cook my dinner

Judy Evans @JudyEv (381812) • Rockingham, Australia 17 Aug 20

Vince does almost all the cooking in our house and I always praise him lavishly a) because he is a great cook and b) because I hate cooking. I do cook from time to time and I also do all the cleaning up. However, he has refused to...

Tests Came Back Negative...

Teresa Trotter @teresatrotter (4073) • Jacksonville, Florida 21 Oct 19

Test results came back today. It came back negative for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). Which is a good thing. They saw a little speck of something, but determined it was not anything, as of yet. They asked me if I...

Great News!

J.P. Randolph @jprtist (656) • Pueblo, Colorado 8 Oct 19

I selfishly let it slip that I had a positive test on a Cologuard Colon Cancer Test. When you have a positive feedback on the Cologuard test, you have to have a colonoscopy. The prep for the test was a failure the first time, so...

Blinding You With Science, Because I KNOW You Want to Know

Four Walls @FourWalls (86574) • United States 30 Jul 19

No doubt, you've heard that expression where someone tells someone else that they are filled to capacity with fecal material. Heck, you've probably thought it about me! So, how much, exactly, is full when you say...

When in Doubt Call the Insurance Company

Four Walls @FourWalls (86574) • United States 23 Jul 19

Or, don’t believe everything they tell you. Last night I reported what the registration person at the hospital told me my portion of the bill would be. Thinking that was a little (okay, a LOT) steep, I called one company...

Yee Owch!

Four Walls @FourWalls (86574) • United States 22 Jul 19

Something tells me I wasted money yesterday when I bought my colonoscopy prep material. I went by the hospital today (since I was in the neighborhood, it was raining, and they have an indoor walking track between the buildings)...
