Today I woke up with some seriously bad heartburn. They’ve added a medication to my (seemingly) ever-growing list, and it was helping. Today is a different story. It’s not what I ate or drank…maybe it’s stress. Who knows? What I do know is that at this time Friday, I will be napping. I’m having a combination endoscopy/colonoscopy, since I’d rather have them check my body than continue on like this. Without going into too much detail, I’ve been having a number of issues, and they want to check to make sure things are in “working order”. If you’ve been following me for awhile, you know that things haven’t been the greatest health-wise. Specialists and my GP can’t figure out why. Symptoms started suddenly and don’t seem to be interlinked. You can read a little bit about that here.

My fiancé had the same thing a couple of months ago, so we still have something liquid items left over that I’ll be having tomorrow. Clear liquids, Jell-O; no orange, red, or purple products…but I don’t think it’s all that big of a deal. I can still take my regular meds, which is great, and one day of liquids will be fine. In all honesty, I’m not that worried about any of it. I received a sample of Depends, which I think will come in handy for the ride home. What else?

✅ Liquids

✅ Aftercare

✅ Plan for tomorrow

I think we’re all set. I find it easier to deal with things like this if I go into it with the mindset that there will be discomfort, but that it’s worth it. So, here’s to Friday and the hopes that it all runs smoothly!

Peace & Love, always.
