So, in mid December I had my second colonoscopy. The first one I had was about 4 years ago. At that time, they took out 2 polyps. This time, they took out 1. I guess it was good to go in again. I know they always say to go in and get checked by age 50, but I started getting checked at 36. I guess it's good that I did. The crazy thing about this second one is that I lost 8 pounds! I couldn't believe it. I didn't think I had 8 pounds to lose. But, I did. I guess the meds you take for the colonoscopy procedure is a good diet pill!
The first colonoscopy I had 4 years ago was a little different. I didn't really know what to expect. I did, but I didn't. Before going in, my doctor had told me that I needed to take in more fiber into my diet. I must have had that on my mind, because after the procedure and coming to, I kept repeating to Nichole, "what is fiber anyway?" Oh, the crazy things you say after being drugged with the anesthesia.
