Totally agree.

After all the years of hosp. visits our biggest challenge is to stay far away from them.

I am not looking forward to my day visit but need the OR to remove any polyps for my five year check.

Soon as nap time is over I am outa there and home to sleep it off in my bed.

Luckily the specialist I chose comes to our town once a month on my respite day off. My son's careprovider while I am "napping with the big black hose"
is staying an extra three hours to make sure I am awake for next shift.

Also the nappy meds they give usually have no lingering effects and I am up and running once awake.

I will scrub my body down with septi soft prior as a protectant wear some old sweats and a tee my dollar store slippers then toss them in the garbedge when I get home.

Good that you are thinking out the details in advance of the procedure. It's smart to plan ahead for the day despite the errrh prep, and the procedure itself. I don't envy you, but I admire your courage and example.

Everyone, they are now saying, needs to get this done upon the first sign of symptoms. I heard that they've dropped the beginning advised age again.

Hopefully you're going to have an experienced internist not a surgeon do the honors?
