The weather in Florida turned out a cool this early morning, about 65 degrees. It's a sunny and 85 degrees.
This morning, I went to see a new, different doctor, at his office in Deland with my parents. He's a gastroenterologist. We drove and stayed on International Speedway Blvd eastward of Daytona Beach, almost one hour. I saw a crowd of patients in the lobby were waiting when we arrived there. The doctor's office is located next to a hospital. I went outside and waited for my turn when my name is being called. The reason I went outside is that AC is bothered me little bit. I went back inside with my Dad when my name is being called. I checked in how much weight I have before I entered the exam room with my mother. We waited for a doctor come in. Doctor did come in. He was nice and friendly to us. We were discussed my belly problems. At the end of our discussion, the doctor suggests I will be sent to the hospital for a test next month, right before Thanksgiving. Yes, I am going back to the hospital again since when I was 12 1/2, that's when the last time for a hip surgery. The doctor said I will take a
colonoscopy and possible
polypectomy. Hoping it will not be a cancer. I am scared. Maybe this could be a link from my deceased aunt, Debbie, who died at age 6 of
leukemia but I don't know. Debbie was the sister of my mother. Debbie passed away in Fall 1963, a month before President Kennedy was killed. Oh, boy, I will be feeling nervous when I took this breaking news from my doctor but my mother said I will be sleeping during surgery. She did take a colonoscopy years ago but Mom looks very healthy. When we left the exam room, I informed Dad that I am going to the hospital as he was opening the door for us. And then we went home.
Anyways, I do remember Kate Couric, former TV morning news host on TODAY, discussed it alot since her husband died. I am confessing I don't want to hear what Kate is talking about colonoscopy cuz she sent a scary message to us as being viewers. She warned us about it. I was tired of hearing that.
I am getting better this time. My medications are working. I got another new one called
Prevacid few nights ago when Mother came over and brought it to me. I gave up a medication called prochlorperazine for nausea few days ago cuz it's a bad and dangerous. I can't control my body. I also can't do a computer stuff. That's why I can't do blogging in my Yahoo page. It also made me sleepy.
That's it for now.
