Nov, 27, 2022

It is a long story. I Wanted able to have a bm for a long time till ai finally asked a friend to admit me to st. Marys hosp. here at Mariannhill to have a professional give me an enema ( we tried many things at home with practically no results. I had three strong enemas and again, no results, finally was released to go to a doctor at another private hospital who told me to take 4 sachets of picoprep (the stuff they ask you to take to flush the system. Well, the system was flushed and the colonoscopy was a great success….clean, clean, clen like a new born baby, even some technicolour pictures of my innards. That was Thursday the 17th nov.

Till now , no movement….back to square one. St. marys let me out on  passout to get the report for the colonoscopy, which I did and I have an appointment with the doctor who did the job to see where we can go from here. (I hope there is a way forward without another colonoscopy, which I can’t afford). I will see him on Tuesday, Nov. 29. Then back to st. Marys for follow up. A problem is that we are mixing two unmixable systems….private and public hospitals …two different systems. Private, good but way out of our budget, and public, good but slow and free or very low cost. It was maddening and frustrating in st. Marys…no internet…no communication with the outside world for almost 2 weeks. I will only know on Tuesday if there is a way forward and what it might be. Keep the prayers coming.  icwhich I duid

 

    I will let you all know what is and has been happening if I have the energy. I haven’t had solid foo, with a few exceptions, for over 2 weeks now. Only soup and mealie porridge, lots and lots of water, some clear apple juice and black coffee or tea to drink. I lost lots of weight     I weigh 51 kg  (about 113 lbs.) In 2018 my normal weight was 150 lbs, or 70 kg. If anybody of you wants to lose weight, I have the secret. I will keep you posted when I get a chance, LOL and more,      Cas
