Procedure update

My endoscopy went very well yesterday.

Just like my colonoscopy last year, I had to go to the Medical Center at 6 a.m. My sister, Nancy, drove me there and stayed until I was ready to go home.

Unlike my colonoscopy, I didn't have to take any laxatives. Thank God!

And I don't remember a thing, except the crew in the room. They were the same ones from last year -- Angela and Dionne.

Dr. Prakash J. Thiruppathi did the procedure because Dr. A.D. Patel had back problems.

Dr. Thiruppathi spoke to my sister and told her that I had inflammations in my esophagus and stomach. He took some biopsies and he'll let me know what's going on with my digestive system.

That's that.

I'm hoping this will be it for a while.
