Re: Colonoscopy - Inflammation - Virus- flue

[Guest guest]

Hello group;

I just finished reading and posting to everyone I needed to chat

with... Now,, the colonoscopy... It was the worst experience fore...

THe first time was ok many many years ago they had me so sedated I went

to sleep..

The last time about 5 years ago I was on morphine so I don't think that

doctor gave me anything to cope with the procedure...I was careful not

to take any morphine before the test.. I thought they knew these

tings...was a horrible experience for me... Yes I watched it all and

made an aweful scene with the pain of it all.... the doctor kept

getting upset with me... I felt all of it...

When I had my gall bladder removed I was put to sleep when I woke up I

woke up screaming in pain the nurse ran over and gave me something for

the pain ... 5 minutes later I woke up screaming its not helping,,,,

she came over and gave me some more...

I have no idea what she gave me.. When all was done I went home the

same day... Did they think I took my morphine pills before the

procedure???? I have no idea.. Who would be that stupid to take any

medication before a gall bladder removal????

For the next few weeks I felt like I had real real surgery... and I

have had a hysterectomy so I know what surgery is like... I had 4

puncture holes where they worked on my gall bladder.. the worst part is

there was no stones in it in the first place....

iohave been off of morphine for the last 4 years since I have a new

rheumy... I quit cold turkey after all this the doctors put me

through.. this way I wont put morphine down as a medication I am on...

I'ts time for another colonoscopy but I am so afraid of it I haven't

told my primary doctor it was time haaaaaaaaaa. Yes I am chicken bawk

bawk bawk... My mom had polips that was cancerand had part of her

colon removed... So I am prone to it too...

To make matters worse I coughed all night last night... My nose is all

plugged up and when I can I blow out a clear mucus co its not an

infection it must be a virus... I coughed so hard today it mademe

throw up,,,,taking humira so I guess I can't take my next injections

till this clears up... darn darn darn... I will make an appointment

with my primary doctor to see whats going on...

I haven't had my flue shot yet,,, I bet he wont give me my flue shot

till this clears up... Husband went out to get some night guill... My

spelling gets worse and worse please bear with me haaaaaaa.

I will be waiting for everyone to give me some advice. I appreciate

the group I am so glad you guys are so full of information... God

bless and take care..

gentle kind hugs

Clora,

Tell your doctor that you do not want a colonoscopy in the office,

period! My old quack doctor did that to me and I thought that I was

going to DIE! I got nothing to relax me or for pain. My intestines

started having spasms during it and I cried and cried from the pain.

I made him stop and told him no more. Then I had to drive myself

home.

I go to a gastroenterologist who does it at a facility where they

give me something and I don't know a thing until it is over. I also

have a endoscopy at the same time to check on my Barrett's Esophagus.

There is no reason to suffer needless pain.

I hope you get over that cough soon.

Shirley and group;

Shirley it was in the hospital and done by a specialist... I am going

to talk to my primary doctor and have him send me to someone else...

I got a post from paula who says basically the same thing.. Shouldnt

be so painful..

That was really brave shirley to make him stop and than drive

yourself home.. You got gumption girl... Wish i did.. I am making

arrangements tomorrow to see my doctor and tell him what happened

before if he can send me to a diff doctor...

I havent cough anymore today.. I think its post nasal drip.. It goes

down my throat when I lie down and causes me to cough really bad... I

will see about getting my flue shot too when I see him... thanks so

much shirley.. God bless and take care

gentle hugs
