Had colonoscopy. The bowel cleanse was unpleasant. I remember nothing nothing from the actual procedure after I said, ā€œHey I think those drugs are starting to work.ā€ Good news is I donā€™t have bowel cancer. Bad news is they banded hemorrhoids. They hurt a wee bit.

That is good news :smiley:

And thatā€™s a real PITA*. But, not bowel cancer, so still a net win.:smiley:

*Someone had to make a Chalfont joke.

My rear end will testify that it is indeed a PITA. (Oh dear, I actually wrote rare end, good thing I saw that before I hit the button.)

Iā€™m not looking forward to that. For me it isnā€™t about the pain, itā€™s the weird, unnatural feeling procedures like that produce.

If thereā€™s padding underneath and the carpet is snug against it you headed for problems. Lift the carpet, and rent some big-A fans (the kind that look like squirrel cage fans) at your local rental place (home depot might have them).

Are you still talking about hemorrhoids?

as someone who has an office in a unfinished basement, it is amazing what some light shade of paint will do when applied to the floor and walls. simple and effective.

Painted basement floors are nice. Ditto walls.
Still pretty easy to clean up (when floods happen), and much nicer looking than bare.

So: as mentioned before, CT scan came back clean (yay!).
But then: just got $1000 co-pay bill because the person who did the scan was a ā€œTier 2ā€ provider. Even though sheā€™s a) in the same building as my Tier 1 PCP b) works for the same organization as my PCT c) I didnā€™t know who would be doing the scan until I showed up for said scan.
Health insurance has already turned me down once, now Iā€™m submitting a formal appeal.
Fuck all this with fire.

So not Oklahoma, about which the rest of us Midwesterners wonder: why DONā€™T houses in Tornado Alley have basements to escape to?

Thatā€™s their new ā€œmoney makingā€ approach - when I got knee surgery a while back, I got a bill from (IIRC) five different companies. Turns out, everyone that touched me technically worked for a different company. Thatā€™s some Grade A BS right there.
