Thursday 1st August
.
A very early start
To Exeter hospital
Up before the dawn
Anxious? Just a little
.
Virtual colonoscopy
Along with a CT scan
Quite uncomfortable
Be as quick as you can!
.
Starving since Tuesday
No solid food on Wednesday
A noisy, rumbling tum
Keep hunger pangs at bay
.
Glad when it’s all over
The anxiousness declines
Heartbeat slowing down
Back to normal times
.
Two weeks to wait
Scanxiety strikes again
Radiographer’s report
But I’m not one to complain
.
A clinical drugs trial
I’m looked after so well
Malignant melanoma
The fears I try to dispel
.
Doing something positive
Seems a good idea to me
Looking after my body
Cancer can do one, you see
.
Thinking of you sweetie
Missing you every day
Wishing you were here
With angels you play
.

Driving to Exeter, just after 6:00am
A mellow, warm sky
Life blunders on. 🙂 Lovely skies and flowers.

Much better than a regular colonoscopy but still a worry, waiting for results.
Hope all is well!

Your flower photos just get prettier al the time! I am praying for your “Scanxiety” and for positive results and miraculous cure if indeed the Big “C” is the diagnosis.

Coucou toi, mon Amie
Je viens déposer
Le soleil dans ton coeur
Ma douceur dans ton âme
Un ciel étoilé dans ton regard
Lorsque ton coeur
Parlera à mon coeur
Nos âmes brûleront ,d’une douce chaleur
Lorsque je viens te rendre visite
Il me semble que je prends ta main
Afin d’être unis d’une grande amitié Céleste
Agréable journée ou soirée belle semaine
Gros bisous Bernard

Was it better or worse than a traditional colonoscopy?

Hi Melinda.
I think the virtual colonoscopy, with CT scan was slightly ‘better’ than a traditional one. Uncomfortable, but much less invasive.
(Inflating the colon made my abdomen swell as if I’d swallowed a medicine ball 😂⚽😂; and then, to have to turn over onto my front, having been on my back, was a bit awkward 😁😅😁)
Still waiting on results 🤞🏼
Hope you are doing well.
