Yes, that’s correct. I had one when I turned 50 and another when I turned 60. Now that I’m staring at 65, my doctor wants me to have a new one. In all actuality, I love a good colonoscopy. You lose weight and flush out food from grammar school lunch plus you get the Michael Jackson twilight sleep stuff and wake up feeling like Snow White. So I was (yes was) really into getting one. Sorry if this comes across as gross, but we all get them at some point or another. Only a few people are willing to discuss them and that includes me.
I’ll talk about anything. Eyes with pride!
I get a referral for a Gastro MD and meet Doctor Kwon. Nice guy. He had the coolest eyeglass frames. I’m gonna get ’em. But anyway, we schedule the procedure for this Friday (May 10) and he gives me the Rx for the Night Before Christmas activity inducer. Now that part of the procedure I’m a little less a fan of, but thankfully we have a bathroom available on three of our four floors. So I planned on staying out of the kitchen since I can’t eat that night anyway.
Again, I digress. The doctor’s office calls last Friday and says the place scheduled for the procedure does not accept my insurance but a local hospital may, but I have to find that out myself. Okay like I could walk to this hospital in a pinch but instead I spent two hours this morning being bounced around like a medicine ball and the end result is I got so teed off that I canceled the whole thing, called the doctor’s office and told them I’ll just grab a garden hose and do it myself. She didn’t get it.
Sadly, I now report that there will be no colonoscopy until I find the patience to deal with incompetent people which isn’t an option for me. My god people. Doing your job does not hinge on being able to cross off something as “done”. How about RESOLVED?
What’s done yet unresolved is possibly my life if I can’t get this thing done, but I’ll take that risk. That’s how annoying it is for me to deal with incompetence.
Have a decent day. I’m gonna mix up some Metamucil and get things moving.
