Medical Technology

Submitted by ub on

I am undergoing a series of medical procedures, which should answer the questions my doctors have raised recently... What's up with that?

Media marvels will be allowing hospital cameras to travel down my throat and also into my intestines for inspection (I've been assured that its not going to be the same camera) these tests, along with a scheduled cat scan ( I don't care for mean cats, or dogs for that matter) are being performed to take a closer look at my digestive system. I am told the stomach is the engine of our body.

My large bowel colon and rectum is being examined from the inside to evaluate symptoms like abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, changes in bowel habits and to screen for colorectal cancer.

Therefore, in plain English, I am going in for a possible engine overhaul. However, my body hasn't felt this weak in a long time. This, after not eating for the past 36 hours.

Please say a prayer, or at least send some good wishes my way. Thanks and may God bless!
