Scope (cont)

Drank my final litre at 7pm, after a few more flushes, I reckoned, enough is enough, I was feeling too weak, I didn't finish the last cup of 250ml. I lay down on bed and slept, managed to sleep for an hour, woke up, read a bit, prep my lunch, and basically, tried to spend lying in bed and restinf, trying not to use any energy, thankfully my tummy wasn't hurting with gastric twist or any unbearable pain, just feeling of tightness and emptiness, growling and discomfort. I played spotify and listened to songs, and prayed alot. LC came home to fetch me, of which I was deeply grateful, and he stayed in the hospital to wait for me throughout. By the time I reached to register, I was feeling really weak and giddy. Nurse nicely registered me and promptly moved in to change and lie down in bed. By 420pm, I was wheeled into the doctor's suite to do the scope. Doc didnt talk much, just asked if I finished the sachets, then, as he inserted the sedatives, he said, 'Dont worry, everything will be over before I know it.' So NOT TRUE. Nurse sprayed LA into my throat. put a mouthguard on me. Undone my robe, lay on one side. I was knocked out within seconds. Endo was unconscious, but I was shockingly awake during colon. I didnt really know what was happening, but I was fully awake, saw my colon on the huge tv screens, doc's voice, and intense pain when the nurse put pressure on my tummy. I was just trying to bear with the pain, like childbirth. Very intense. My questions, was I woken up because it was too painful? Was the sedation insufficient? Nurse said my colon were too narrow and tight, another smaller scope had to be replaced, so maybe there was time lapse, and I woke up prior to procedure. I have no idea, so many questions I need to ask in my next consult, and make sure I write them down this time. The good news, after all the trauma, my report was clear, all normal.I left SGH feeling truly relieved, thankful, light hearted. Had my fish porridge, and went to sleep. At 430am, I woke up with hunger pants, got to get up and make a drink. Felt a few burps, felt better and went to sleep. Then I was so clear in my head and thought my dad. I prayed for him and asked God to help me be commited to bring him to church, meet him for lunch every sat noon. I pray that God will give me the strength, despite the inconveniences, I should visit me at least, more regularly. Woke up at 630am, had my first diarrohea, I hope my bowels will be normal soon, after all the stress I put it through the previous day. I'm thankful and relieved mostly, if only the colon was painless and smooth too, everything would have been perfect. now questions hung in the air, till my next appointment in sept.
