Better then a bottle of wine

I went to the Dr's office today for a regular check up. On the up side I get to lower my medication to 2 times a day. Only 6 pills per day, a good direction. While I would prefer getting rid of the other medication I'll be happy with what I got.

As for the more frustrating, I have to go in every 4 months not 6 as i had originally thought. That's a pain and annoying (I have a 35$ copay, it's a good thing i have a flex spending account). The even worse news is the doctor wants to do another colonoskapy this coming year. If you have never had one It's not the actual procedure that sucks. your actually asleep for the whole thing. It is the preparation that stinks. I never keep it all down and so far they haven't had any issues but i couldn't bear to wake up and find out that the test is void because I'm not 'clean enough'.

I have to laugh because I'm thinking of all the negative things about a colonoskapy. the second worst thing is the liquid diet for 24 hours. I LOVE to eat and no amount of liquid will satiate my hunger. no many how many calories.

It's a good thing really that she wants to be more on top of my illness. But I'm not sure if it's too much considering I thought once a year visit was good, twice is ok too. every 5 years sounded doable for the dreaded big test, two just does not give me enough recovery time. At least she will negotiate with me.

I was so frustrated when I left I tried to call Lillie to vent but she was still at the gym. So My release was the treadmill. It had been a while but the pain in my thigh is gone, 40 minutes of running was all that I needed. I felt great!
