As of last Tuesday, I had to stop all NSAIDs (aleve, tylenol, etc) due to bleeding risks during next weeks procedure. And wouldn't you know it, I got a POUNDING headache. I guess that's life. I have completely slathered my forehead in HeadOn and I'm pretty much inhaling peppermint oil. I'm getting pretty excited for Mayo. I want this done with, all behind me. I am ready to move on! Yeah I know I'll have to have screenings for the rest of my life. But, I want these polyps out of here. No more worry, if they are growing, invading my bile ducts. No more wondering if I look a little yellow today (jaundice is a sign that the polyps have invaded the duct).
And. . . wait for it. . . it is starting to looking like we might make to Florida after all! I really hope I didn't just jinx us. Things are looking good for the Stolen Colon Fam.
