Loc: Within stray mortar fire of DC

I was awake like this for 3 out of my last 4 colonoscopies. It really traumatized me, so much that I had a seizure on the table on the 3rd one and they had to stop the procedure.

The last one they put me out and gave me a memory drug so that I wouldn't remember. It was vastly different from the other experiences. Unf, you seem to have gone through the former. So sorry, I wouldn't recommend that way to anyone.

{{{{{{{BIG HUGS}}}}}}}

Please know there is a better way of undergoing the procedure. If your symptoms change and need arises to get another done, CHANGE DOCTORS and get the one which I described where you won't remember anything.

So sorry, hon. Go grab the eleven closest pillows you can and curl up on the couch with a Mel Gibson movie.
