Saw the whole thing on the colour flat panel monitor. They sent away the polyps to pathology and they came back as normal. Good for another 3 years.
Others in recovery just couldn't wake up. I had my orange juice and muffin and was eager to go in about 10 minutes. Hadn't felt so good in years, probably due to the effect of the drugs.
WDE. (the fasting with only clear liquids was the worst part of it all)

I did hear that the prep is a little less intense now. I had the same IV Valium/Demerol. As I recall, immediately after the operation (and I do mean immediately), I wanted Chinese food. I had Kung Pao San Yan .... my favorite thing in the whole world.
