Colonoscopies

[Bina]

Nancy I'm so glad everything is okay. My oncologist gave me a little package of stool cards that I'm supposed to collect samples and send back, just haven't done that yet. I sure need to with all the cancer I seem to get. I did have a colonoscopy about five years ago. I mentioned this to him and he said they usually do them every five to seven years. So I guess I have another couple of years to go.

I remember those stool cards....A few yrs back my doc gave me some, I did what was required, and when I brought them into the Lab, the tech promptly dumped them into the garbage and said "We don't use those anymore".
I almost started to cry..... She gave me new cards and I had to do the whole darn 3 days of fun all over again.
