    My wife had her an(nu)al colonoscopy and all looks good. Well, as good as the inside of one's colon can look. It's been a year since her resection and so far, no recurrence of cancer.

    Happy New Year! (I may get some)

    Is she going to let you hit it in the can, to celebrate? ;)

    Not sure if I may irritate the anastomosis so I may be relegated to the front door.

    Glad to hear the good news Maj. ahem LtCol. That has got to be hard to go through good to hear things are looking good.

    Hell... Any port in a storm!

    I prefer the front door, too... Something never shat right with me when you're forced to run to the bathroom post-coitus and either dispose of a condom in a manner that ensures you don't smell it the next day, or clean the crap off your cock.

    Call me 'old fashioned...' :rolleyes:

    Glad to hear the good news, Maj. How often does she have to get scoped?

    Once a year scope and she'll have her second CT scan of the year this month. Just follow up to make sure it doesn't come back.

    Wait until you get scoped one day. It's not fun, especially when you are immune to the effects of Versed.

    I had a stent removed after my kidney stones and that really sucked.You know you're in for shit when the nurse immediately walks over to you and says "it'll be OK".

    Don't know what Versed is, but it makes my spine tingle like Tim Curry's voice in "Legend."

    Yeah, the guy that pumped my stomach (not from an overdose) looked bummed about having to do it. He was already apologizing before he started.

    It's a shitty (no pun intended) date rape drug, basically. Supposed to dope you up and make you forget things. I remember parts of the colonoscopy. I remember it hurting when they got to the transverse section and saying, "Oww, that hurts."

    The last time they gave it to me for an endoscopy, I was alert and remember everything. They might as well injected saline.

    I think a frying pan would have a better effect.
