Health thread

I have a health issue also. Should the first post have left me laughing for such a long period of time. I think I fail to understand the severity of the issue.

 

This thread is about physical health not mental.

 

 

And in answer to your question; yes, yes it should.

booooh, getting blood taken to test for Crohns disease. Curse my unpredictable bowels! Also need to give a stool sample, this sucks total balls!

 

that is so bizarre! I am going through the same thing, are you getting a biopsy?

 

I was doing random podiatry referrals at work, and came across a patient with a very similar medical history to me (except his is more advanced)

 

psoriatic arthritis (one of the rarer arthopathies) is pretty unusual in itself without bowel problems! Spooky!

says he'll refer me to a specialist if the blood test comes back positive. Might have to get a colonoscopy. I don't want to be violated by a camera >_<

 

I think I have to have one regardless.. >_<

 

Apparently you get sedation during the procedure (my colleague had one for cancer screening) so you're away with the clouds for most of it, wooo! :P

We should start a crohns club.

 

Don't be worried by the ass cam.

 

A little embarrassing but it's fine.

 

You'll learn to make a joke afterwards.

 

Like, "Hey, I've had a camera up my ass!"

 

 

I'm more worried about what they might find than the actual process, wish it was over with :(

 

Most of my mums siblings have crohns, and my granny has a bad case of IBS... I was always going to be screwed genetically :P

 

but yes camera-up-the-bum club sounds awesomefunsies
