As you may be aware from my other posts, I have Ulcerative Colitis as well as Epilepsy.
I had a letter a few months ago from the Doc telling me that he wants me in for an Endoscopy - a look at me butt !
Having tried to get out off it, as I'm a bit scared about having to take some Klean-Prep stuff which completely flushes me through, so they can see things clearer (if you catch my drift), I was eventually told that I HAVE to go and have it done, and that my pills will stay in my system no problem (which is what I was concerned about).
So, in approx 40 minutes I have to start my first dose of the 4 litres!!!...off Klean-Prep for the day.
Tomorrow I have to shoot to the hospital where they're gonna drug me up, knock me out, and take bits and pieces out of me so they do an examination of the biopsy, which in turn should give 'em a better idea off how much medication I SHOULD be taking for the UC, and if there is any better stuff for me.
I'm currently popping a pill called Aziathioprine, which reduces your white blood cell count, so less damage can be incurred to my "inner walls" <ahem>.....and I am sooo sure that it's these tablets which are causing my mood swings, and tiredness too. So maybe this will be a good thing - I keep telling myself.
So, if you don't hear from me over the next couple of days, it's cuz I'm either on the toilet or completely drugged up....thought I'd share that with you (hehe)
Stay well everyone, and I'll speak to you soon. :cheers:
