Colonoscopy is nothing now days. It's not like the old style short version....
You don't have to have it done though. My father in law didn't, even after repeated attempts to get him to go.
It took him 9 slow months to die. Not real pretty.
You should have been getting the cholesterol checked for the last 10 years.
Need a chest Xray
Colonoscopy, they dope you up so it's nothing. You even get a cheesy pic to take home to the family.
Schedule a 50 year physical with your family doc and he should set it all up for you.

Back in kilo and Eel's day they would send a sketch artist up there....

I've already got the colonoscopy scheduled.
My biggest concern right now is that my left leg is not functioning well. It happened in the middle of my deer hunt. I came home to shower and sleep in a bed before heading back up to unit 61, I went out to the garden and pulled a few weeds and suddenly I couldn't walk. It felt like a massive cramp in both my thigh and calf. I guess I should be greatful it didn't happen out in the woods since I was hunting alone. Had an MRI today and will hopefully find out what is really the matter on Monday or Tuesday. It took three weeks for insurance to approve the MRI, had to have ten PT visits, then an X-ray, then finally the MRI. PT and Doc think it is probably a disc problem at L5. Some of you may remember my post about a hamstring pull that had been nagging me. The PT and Doc think it was just the start of the disc problem and not really a hamstring. Trying to stay positive. I'm about as useful as a paperweight on my desk.
Cheers,
Fred
