Guest guest Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Warning: This email contains blatant whining. Yes, I'm over 50...which means that I am s'posed to be getting those lovely tests they recommend for people of my advanced age. And being an RN, and a cancer RN at that, I should be doing the things I recommend. Of course, I haven't. So tomorrow I am finally going for a certain test that requires 24 hours of clear liquids and a lovely buncha laxatives this evening. 24 hours of clear liquids! That means ALL the damn day today! Not even a latte! It's only 9:33 and I am going just nucking futs. I am sooooo hungry and I keep flashing on protein and of course, I have to remind myself that it's NOTHING BUT CLEAR LIQUIDS dammit all day, until tomorrow morning, that means today, all day, did I mention I'm hungry...Fortunately I've cancelled my on call shift tonight because no poor patient should be subjected to this: I'm crabby, whiny, self-pitying, stomach growling like a rotweiller.

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Hi Martha- good luck with the day going by.................its a hard one, when its just those liquids i think the only way I could deal with that once i was home at night would be to go to bed and to fall sleep !

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Martha, We all have a right to whin and complain when things are hard, that's why we're all here for each other. I'm sorry that you have to go through this, I'm going to be 50 this month, but I've already had to do this 2 times. I know you know it's just to make sure every thing is alright, so if not they can catch things early. So whin and complain all you want it's okay, but do the test. Donna"M.

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Awwww, Martha. I'm sorry! At least you don't have to have this done very often. Take care! Go rent some movies and snuggle with your honey. Laurie __________________________________ Yahoo!
