Today is going to a bad bad day, I will spend most of my Sunday sat in the toilet, sound like fun. Its the day before I go to hospital for my tests Colonoscopy and a Gatroscopy. This started at 2pm where I had my last meal until tomorrow evening. I had Salmon and Rice then at 3pm I had my dessert 6 Senna tablets.
I have to be totally enmpty for the Two procedures, the laxatives are just the start of it. At 7pm I take my first Moviprep drink with one 500ml of water. Thankfully it has a lemony flavour.
I then go to bed and hopefully sleep until 6am when I need to take my medication plus another dose of Moviprep. Not sure my medication isn't going to work as I'm flushing them straight out. I've signed all the consent forms, packed my dressing gown and slippers ready for my 1.45 appointment tomorrow. I've also asked for sedation whilst they do the Gatroscopy, this is the one that scaree me so hopefully the sedation makes the procedure go past smoothly.
I am allowed to drink clear fluids up until 2 hours before the procedure to make sure I'm cleaned put. The leaflet stated I can expect to go to the toilet 12 - 15 times. I'm going to be worn out. I am gong to feel hungry after fasting for nearly a full day drinking only water. I'm going on a diet so this is a good start to my diet.
I'm dreading the procedures and what they may find but has to be done to get my health sorted out. Getting old isn't fun at all. I have to get myself sorted because now I'm a nana I need to be around for a long time to see my little Evie grow. I want to be here to see all the stages of her growing, she means the absolute world to me.
I am home alone at the moment, hubby has gone to Golf for a few hours. I'll let him make my Moviprep drink as he has had it begot and knows what he's doing.
To take my mind off things I am watching the Elvis movie for the 7th time and will probably watch it a hundred times more. I will be in tears again when Elvis dies, I do this everytime I see his Cortege of cars and fans breaks my heart.
Thank you for visiting. 💟💟
