The Results…

Posted by Chuck on 8th February 2008

Wow! Thank y’all for all the great comments, emails, texts and phone calls. It sho did make me feel loved….or at least greatly liked!

So, here’s the results: They found that I have Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome. They found a few ulcers in the lining of my esophagus and they took three biopsies. I should have the results of those in 7 to 10 days. They found no polyps or tumors in the intestines, so that’s good. They’ve got me on Pamine Forte, Nexium and Alinia and I get to go back in 8 weeks and have another “down the throat” exam. Yay…

I know many of you have been through the whole colonoscopy thing so you know what a pain in the ass the whole “cleaning you out” routine is. I had one hell of a rough evening last night. Plus it was a whole 45 hours without eating any solid food. Boy howdy I sure did wolf me some grub down this evening and guess what? Ten minutes ago I took a dump….a regular dump. No squirts and no pain. Ah, it was great. Praise the Lord and pass the toilet paper!

Again, thank you all for showing such concern! Have a great weekend!
