Ooops... one doctor too many!

Today I had my tummy doc appointment, and he feels I need to have an endoscopies’ procedure since I could possibly have a blockage in my esophagus due to my vomiting. He also said that since my last colonoscopy was way back in 2001 and I had a few polyps then that were removed that I should have another one of those too. And he is willing to work with me at the Medicare price for the two procedures at only two thousand dollars!
What to do, what to do, we can’t afford another large expenditure now, but if I wait can I afford to?
In the meantime he said try to stop eating roughage, in other words raw veggies and fruits, darn…my favs!
And to take the purple pill boxed stomach medicine, but it takes a while to kick in, unlike my chewy complete ones!

This has not been a too feeling good day.
My muscle spasms have gone berserk attacking in most all of my lacking true muscular body, and I consumed a few of my antispasmodic medication pills today for the first time in quite some-time. I think it is mostly caused by the contrast in the temperatures that we had to deal with today!

It is usually difficult sitting in this upright position to write due to my hips, but right now it is a wee bit more, since my tummy is still not so good although I did take that purple pill around four hours ago!
So I might very well be calling it a night sooner rather than later…

Yep, I think I will bid you all a good night now so I can retreat to my lounge chair which is easier on my hips and belly issues.

Count your blessings and we will too!
