From one native Marylander to another, good for you. Stage 1 ain't no thang. And oncologists are a weird bunch. Mine is still poking and probing me for a bleeder somewhere, he thinks. I'm of a 'certain age' and was long overdue for a lower GI scoping. He had them run the ol' Roto-Rooter up my whatsis, and they took out
five gnarly polyps that they said were cancers-in-training. Better to catch that stuff now, in the early stages, than ignore they symptoms and get bad news down the road. Hang in there, you'll be fine. As long as they keep pulling blue jimmies out of the Bay, I'm gonna stay alive to eat 'em. LOL!

I had my yearly crabs for my birthday (again), before my surgery! LOL - they were great, too. Held me for several days of wonderful lunches.
Still want to have more, though!
I’ve been wondering if I should bug my gastro about colonoscopy again - it’s been 3 years now (including since my gut surgery). I hope you do well with yours.
My woman parts are the trouble now. :-\

Sounds like you may be on the one year cycle for a while.

Jimmies! Haven’t heard that expression in a long time. I’m an Annapolis girl transplanted to Florida. I was just telling some children the other day how to tell if a crab is a Wasington Memorial male or a State Capital dome female!
