I'm going for my colonoscopy this Thursday so they have a current evaluation of my diagnosis. Pending the results there, the ball is going to start rolling with the Pick-A-Surgeon game. I'm currently 80% sure of going through with the surgery. But it's that remaining 20% that's an 800 pounds gorilla with an attitude. Not a scruffy yet lovable attitude, but one of those might-beat-you-up-if-you-look-at-him-funny ones. I'll see what they say on Thursday :) Good luck to you as well!

I just had my colonoscopy yesterday and the doctor agreed that it was a right choice for me. So now I'm getting things going, setting up another appt with the doc so we can go forward with picking a surgeon and getting rid of this Ulcerative Colitis forever! Good luck to you!

I know how scary surgery is...just got done with the 3 step process. It is well worth it, though. I hope you find a surgeon you feel comfortable with and your process is a smooth one. Take Care!!! I'll be watching your progress and keeping all available body parts crossed for you! Susan Good luck, Brevin. I know how scary surgery is…just got done with the 3 step process.
