24 hours

Today I begun my 24 hours of discomfort for colonoscopy prep.  Instead of my eggs, toast and OJ I am accustomed to my breakfast consisted of apple juice, vegetable broth and orange jello.  It was not exactly a great combination and I had to tap out of the orange jello after eating about half of it.  For whatever reason just simply beginning the liquid prep seems to have triggered my body into a purge mode.  Of course the real fireworks start tonight after I take my first does of Suprep, one of the most vile substances  I have ever consumed.  Already I feel a bit wiped out.  Instead of going to the gym I plan to just roll around on my One Wheel for a bit.  I just keep telling myself that by this time tomorrow it will all be over with.

I celebrated the start of colo prep with a visit to the dermatologist office today.  You know you are getting old when you have medical appointments on consecutive days.  The doctor cut off a piece of suspect skin by my right ear that I am sure is basal cell cancer.  The end result will be another hole in my face without a doubt.

Hopefully tomorrow at some point I have enough energy to drop another entry in.  I think there is no way to keep a nap off my Friday itinerary since I take my second dose of prep at 3:30 AM and likely will not be able to sleep at all afterward.

If you want to be entertained take a peek at how my Suprep consumption went back in 2018.
