CLEAR colonoscopy!

Hello all

update on February medical stuff

Yesterday my colonoscopy was CLEAR! This is my first colonoscopy after the GI surgery 9/08. Last week had a good gynecological exam too, especially after dealing with very dry vaginal tissue for months (thanks goes to my naturopath). Doc said tissue was "better than most folks in menopause and you've had radiation therapy!" gotta love those comments, eh? Next week CEA and medical and radiation oncologist appts. and then, the last hurdle for this time period, CT scan March 4. Whew, my very own Olympics!

all the best to all of you, Leslie

    Take care, thanks for sharing, and enjoy your day!!

    What's up yours?
    Mine was clear too and the scan. Such a relief. I hate to have the scope, but the relief afterwards, makes it all worth it. So glad to hear good news!
