Almost clear colonscopy

Colonscopy this morning. Still amazed that after a double dose of meds they still couldn't get me "out". Rather crampy when he went around corners.
He took one polyp out. Thinks it is benign :) and says if so he will see me in 5 years.

No reason he could tell for the bleeding. Hasn't been an issue in a couple of weeks, slowly got less and less, then nothing. Obviously not an issue any more, whatever it was healed itself?

As always I am grateful for good news and wow, 5 years till I have to prep again!!! YAHOoooooooooo

    YAY! And that nasty prep is worse than the colonoscopy, I guess, as long as you can be knocked out. How awful. But good news is always great to read on these blogs. Congratulations!!! Celebrate!!!
