Today I had my second colonoscopy in 6 months. I also had an upper GI. So basically, I had scopes (cameras) check out my entire GI tract. Fortunately, my upper GI (esophagus and stomach) looked good and normal! My colon, however, still looks messy. In fact, I have colitis (inflammation) throughout my entire colon (large intestines). This is more inflammation than I have had in the past. They took many biopsies...so we'll see what they show in a couple of days. Most likely this is the crohns that I've been in denial about. The terrible news is that he gave me medicine to take every day (I think I've complained about pills in past blogs)...Anyway..I don't have to take one or two a day....rather 12 a day!!! UGH! I do find the name of the med amusing though...asacol...perfect name for a colon drug.
On a brighter note.... I went to a fun halloween party on Saturday night... so I thought that I'd share some pics...
Not sure I'd let her get near me!
Yea Sox!
I go back for treatment #8 tomorrow... not how I'd like to spend my day/week... but ready to get another treatment behind me!
