No a##holes in the bunch...
That's pretty cute, Emily!
How about "turn the other cheek". Why do they always want you on your RIGHT side for a rectal exam and colonoscopy??

When I got my colostomy I told everyone that when they called me a worthless a$$hole, they'd be right! LOL

yesterday at lunch I commented that salad (any kind of lettuce other than iceberg) just goes right thru me after losing 32 inches of colon. My son said my new name would be Salad Shooter.

Goodness, I've certainly had projectile diarrhea. Over the years it is much better but too much butter and grease does still set me off. I never left books and magazines in my bathrooms but I have them now. Reading material is essential.
Thanks for the laugh Carletta!!!

I laughed myself when he said it, I may have to try to figure out a way to change my name on the board. We all need to laugh as much as we can, and as often as we can. As for the books in the bathrom, I've been thinking about building shelves in there.

After prep, before colonoscopy:KathiM said:Just off the top....
Feeling like Sh@t...
Would that be on one of my 'good' days (firm and warm)
...or my 'bad' days...well, I'll leave that up to you guys...
Either way, I, personally, wouldn't want to feel it ANY day....
ROFL! Great post!
Hugs, Kathi
Scared sh@t-less...

That's interesting Krista, since I know we both have gone to Dr. Ramamoorthy (& I imagine you also had your flex sig w/ Dr. Savides?)
I've always been asked to lie on my left side, not right. Are you sure it's your right side they have you lie on? If so, maybe it depends upon where the initial tumor was?! Weird...

"Salad Shooter"- that is sooo funny!! I've noticed the same problem and I never even had the colon resection. Just with all the chemo, etc., salad seems to be the main thing that will start the diarhea up. A real bummer since I'm trying to eat healthier!
This is a great thread!!0
