Help

Great story Tony ! Maybe you should be a professional colonoscopy advisor. So many people think it'll be the other guy/gal. There really is no discomfort anymore unless you call the yummy prep drink so. It's such a simple procedure to prevent a horrible situation.
Also we should thank Tony for asking for moral support and making more folks aware of it.
I might send The other Tony's story to my oldest son. He just won't do it yet.
Good health to you Tony, sounds like you're on the upside now.

Tony ,

you are in my thoughts & I prayers, Keep your spirits up, The guys on the forum will be with you as well
 
Thank You, I am doing well ,esp compared to some I am taking treatments with. And have seen a few pass away I was taking treatments with .
It is sort of a sad place, The treatment center.
I am Actually glad they are able to take this bag off me.
I think it is somewhat of a nuisance. There are times I am emptying it every 5 minuets.
And it is hard when you are out sometimes.
Looking in trash cans for an old container to thin the contents out before emptying.
But All in all I can say I was pretty lucky through it all.
And it is true, you don't think it will happen to you.

It can be, I spent many a Wed. there with my wife but a lot of good work is done there too. Being positive is strong medicine & only you can supply it. The Dr. said he got it all & the chemo is insurance.....believe it! Don't hesitate to continue to request prayer here & other places. Everyone gets down now & then especially when we're going through trying times.

Thank You Brian.
I am still hanging in there, did have the reversal, this last operation was sort of hard on me.

Just read yesterday another woman l was taking treatments with passed away, she way only around my age, mid fifty's, well, I will be 59 this year.
Hoping I can get SS to allow me to stay on disability. I have a review in December.
I just do not feel up to going back to work, I got peripheral neuropathy now from the treatments, and will not be able to take the cold.
Plus being close to retirement age. I have
plus, l don't know if it was the IV, but there is something wrong with my right arm now after this last surgery.

DON'T do like I did and forget the appointment until about midnight. "Medicine " was supposed to start at 9:00 Pm, did not remember on time. Called the Doc at midnight and He said to take a DOUBLE dose. Everything "came out ok in the end.":lmao: Bet I don't forget the next time.

OK, I won't next time.
A lot has happened since then.
I just worry about the cancer returning.
That is my big worry right now, that and battling the elements if they don't allow me to stay on disability.
Thank you for everyone's support.
