Your positive attitude is amazing! Unfortunately, I don't llook at that day in a positive light. I was told I had IBD and needed a colectomy in the same phone call. It was a very upsetting day.

I always love your positive comments Kangaroo! Thank-you!

And wow! I could not imagine getting all of that in one phone call! Why did they not tell you that after your colonoscopy??? Usually they say things like that after the colonoscopy is over. Did you get your colonoscopy done alone the first time???

Before the colonoscopy, my doctor told me he would have a diagnosis right after. But after the colonoscopy, he told me he would contact me later with results. Looking back, I think he had never seen a bad situation like mine, and wanted to do more research and get more opinions. He may have wanted to wait for biopsies as well.

My dad drove me to and picked me up. It was my first and only colonoscopy ever.

Wow! That is quite a story! I am sorry that happened! But now you are here and stronger than ever

How long did you have to wait for the telephone call after the colonoscopy was over??? 7 days???
