Colonoscopy was fine, nice and straightforward. We even pressed my belly lightly to see it move on the camera, and it was weird to think where the camera was! I had seven people in the room and Meat loaf playing. A bit like a party of nerds, including me… Although I would not have chosen the music. All seems good. Nothing weird hopefully, so back to square one with my tummy issues. But that’s the next steps now along with my ongoing food diary and monitoring.
A bit sore and dizzy today so despite my desire to gym the hell out of myself, I’m resting up. That’s ok.
Day #374
Before one year on this date I was in rehab. The feeling is little bit strange, how fast this year pass. Today instead being in a group therapy now im at work sober and focus on the things.
Im proud and happy of myself
Have a wonderful day and stay strong and sober
Thank you all for you lovely replies. It means a lot to me.
I’m glad you’re gonna have a happy feet again today @SoberWalker. Hope it is ready now to carry you all the ways along your sober journey without pain.
I understand your perspective @Bluekoolaid but for sure you’ll be missed here. Hope to see you around again some day.
I wish you all the best on your sober journey Trevor.
That’s a trip about the barometric pressure, I never thought about that and how it affects us wow, thank you for bringing that up! I am going to start tracking myself and see if that might be the reason I feel like shit sometimes. Very interesting, thanks again Laura!
251 days sober
I had 2 days of feeling in a funk and now I’m back to normal. Yesterday was some crazy weather and an all day power outage so I stayed home with a friend playing games, chatting and then going to bed early. I think I was needing a day to relax and recharge. Since the power was out I couldn’t do any work so it was a forced rest which allowed me to rest without any feeling of guilt. I was needing it.
Felt refreshed and more myself today. And was happy to get some good work done. I get frustrated with my down moods mostly because I don’t always understand why I get to feeling that way. If I can know what caused it then I feel less frustration and get over it more quickly. I need to learn how to deal with my frustrations better.
And you @SoberWalker, finally freedom Happy for you.
@Just_Laura thanks for tip. My weather app doesn’t have barometer, I must try an other one. I have those weird days when nothing works in my body as it should be and it’s good to know what to blame
Absolutely awake. They gave me painkiller and conscious sedation thru an IV. But I didn’t feel at all drowsy or sedated. I literally chatted for the entire thirty to forty minutes and answered questions and stuff.
Wednesday morning check in.
Yesterday was my second day in a row avoiding complaining, resentment, and any negative mood.
Will aim to complete that again.
Thank you all for you your contributions and presence on here. Even if my reading and responding time is limited, it is much appreciated.
@Bluekoolaid Trevor, thank you for sharing your thoughts. I know you and I haven’t interacted directly on here, but I appreciate the thought and effort you put into your profile summary, and personal reflections on here. They are relatable to many of us, and I find that supportive in my own journey. I hope the screen time temptation reduction is as meaningful as you hope for.
Ah. In the UK we don’t get that option at all. It was conscious sedation OR just Gas & Air!
I’m kinda glad I didn’t miss it as I saw my Villi and entire lower bowel! It was like that kids movie Flight of the Navigator and I was inside my own body.
Awesome work, keep going 
Happy for you.
