Nasty bottom stuff.

"Read more...if strong of stomach."

Well....I had my flexible sigmoidoscopy. Quite painful actually, but interesting nevertheless. They focused in on a polyp which they then removed. I saw the process happening on a monitor. They also found that I am suffering from diverticulitis. I've been booked in for a colonoscopy later in the year. This procedure will be done under anaesthetic, unlike the flexi sigmoid.

On the way home I broke wind and filled my trousers with what I can only describe as lubricant. This may have been your average public-school prefect of a certain period's idea of heaven, but I found it more than slightly uncomfortable and embarrassing to boot.

Thankfully SWMBO found it amusing.

Fingers crossed that there ain't too much wrong with the Ninefingers colon.
