anticipated. The sleepy drugs didn't wear off until late Tuesday, which was super weird and unwelcome. I will get the results back from the biopsies this week. I did not get much reading done this week. I worked on random stuff this morning, and hope to relax the rest of the weekend!

Your mention of sleepy drugs made me think of the videos that have been popping up on my TikTok of people seeing how far they can count backwards until the anesthesia knocks them out. I'm not sure I like this trend as I'm terrified of doctors and hospitals and procedures so I would want my medical team to be serious, professional, and FOCUSED on the work at hand. Should the anesthesiologists be messing around like this???? I don't know. Scary.
ReplyDeleteAnyway! I am glad your procedure is OVER and I hope you get GREAT test results back!
Jinjer-no, I agree with you, they should be focused on their job. They didn't even have me count down, they started one med and had me move and answer some questions, and I was awake a bit longer than I wanted to be. But, I am glad it's over as well!!!
DeleteGood that you are finishing so many books from your planned reading list. Or at least good that your stack is short for the moment.
ReplyDeletebest, mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Mae, good that the stack is short, LOL!
DeleteGlad the procedure went well! And grats on being caught up on reviews!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nicky!

Thanks Katie!
DeleteSo glad your colonoscopy went well. I had mine last week too. So fun, lol! I hope you can get back to your routine and that biopsy is all clear. Happy reading and blogging!
ReplyDeleteThanks Shellie, I hope your procedure went went also!
DeleteIt's great that your colonoscopy went smoothly. Fingers crossed, prayers sent for good results.
ReplyDeleteI feel a sense of accomplishment when I have a small stack of books, especially at the end of the year.
Deb, right?!
DeleteIt's a shame that you suffered from the anesthetic. That's happened to me a couple of times so I get how disturbing that can be.
ReplyDeleteI like it when I only get a couple of new books each week as well. I don't want my to review in NetGalley to get too large. I'd love to get physical books. I don't understand how ya'll get them.
Carla, we are on reviewer teams. Bethany House, Revell, Moody all have them. I am sure others do as well.
DeleteDragonfly Ashes looks good! Congrats on being caught up.
ReplyDeleteThanks Olivia!
DeleteP.S. I’m sorry the anesthetic knocked you out for so long. When I had mine, I was sick all day afterwards. (When my husband had his, he woke up and was ready to go to lunch!) Hoping you get perfect results.
ReplyDeleteYuck, that's not fun!
DeleteSometimes those drugs just really hold on to some people. My dad and my MIL have that happen to them as well. All the good vibes and prayers for your results.
ReplyDeleteThanks Erin!
DeleteGlad you survived your colonoscopy! Hope the rest of your weekend is relaxing.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lark!
DeleteHubs has his colonoscopy this week. Hope your results are good!
ReplyDeleteThanks Becki, I hope your husband's goes well!
DeleteTrying to avoid chemo and radiations, my husband and I have decided to give fasting a try. Reading a few books on the subject and some podcasts. Hope your results come out good.
ReplyDeleteClaudia, thank you! Enjoy your research and podcasts.
DeleteI'm glad you made it through the colonoscopy okay. I hope all the results are good ones. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThanks Yvonne, you too!
