Well, I got my EGD and colonoscopy this morning. I was afraid I'd have
to do the latter again, as I couldn't finish the prep work for it. I
drank half the bottle of MyLytely, enhancing it with lemonade Kool-Aid
Flavor packets, so make it tart, and remove the "nasty taste" it had
otherwise.

Unfortunately, having not eaten in over 24 hours, I got a severe
build-up of stomach acid, and it was reacting with the solution...to
where I got chilled, nearly nauseous, and very sleepy. But, thankfully,
the doctor was able to complete both (only 1 polyp...I have to call on Wednesday for a biopsy report), and I don't have to do them again for 3
years.

But, next time, I'm going back to Citrate Of Magnesia and Ducolax
tablets. If I have to, I'll get 2 bottles of the citrate of magnesia,
but that's still less than half a gallon of that nasty stuff.

I thought I might have a detached retina, with all the floaters and
flashes I've been experiencing in my eyes lately. But, a retinal exam
the other day (man, that light was so bright), showed that while I might
have a small tear, I don't need any surgery at this time.

They did give me a handout on "flashes and floaters", and told me to
"look for a dark curtain" entering the eye from any direction. If I
notice that, I have to get in for emergency surgery, before I go blind.

So, that's something to keep an eye on...pun intended.
