No Ulcer!

Let's do the happy no ulcer dance.

The endoscopy was really nothing to be worried about. The nice nurse had me take off my clothes from the waist up and put on a hospital gown. The found a nice gurney for me to lay on.

My first ever IV was relatively painless and they found my vein easily, then I just lay around until we went into the procedure room. It was a bit dark in there, but I didn't care. The hooked me up to monitors, then fed the anesthesia into the IV and I had a nice nap.

I dreamt that there was something going down my throat and it wasn't terribly comfortable (or that's how I experienced it), then it was coming out and soon I was waking up in the recovery area.

I was a little groggy last night but that passed...and my throat hurt a bit when I was going to bed, but that seems to have passed, as well.

But I have a good looking stomach. There were a few red spots that he did a biopsy on, but no ulcer.

B is over this weekend. After I see a client this morning, we'll be hanging out until she has to go to her wedding. I've missed her.

Endoscopy is something close to my heart these days - it takes up a lot of my time at work.
