Hi, for those of you who were thinking or sending prayers my way, my colonoscopy was all clear! Yea! I don't have to go for another one for 3 more years! Just thought I'd give an update....

    THAT'S AWESOME SUSAN!!!! WooHoo!!

    What year mark is this for you? Are you past the three-year-your-chances-go-down point yet? I do yearly scopes even after my 3 yr point and will continue to do yearly even though I am past my 5 yr point. I think it has to do with my sister having had it so young too or something. I dunno....they tell us this information when we are still loopy from the good scope drugs. haha I guess I should find out why. But you lucky duck that you don't have to drink the "poison" (phospho soda) for three more years!! :-)

    peace, emily

    No, I am 2 1/2 years out. I am due for scans very, very soon....I was told after 2 years I could go ahead and get pregnant if I want, but it is still too nerve wracking. I hope I feel better after these next scans! I always feel better for a while, then I get paranoid again.
    At least I don't have to have another scope for a while, so that is a relief. I was told by my GI and my oncologist that it's OK to wait 3 years, yeah it's probaby cause they think you might have a genetic predisposition w/ your sister having had it and all.
    I'll write you soon, I promise, I've just been busy with this and all this stuff with my landlord being a you know what!
    Take care,
    Susan
