this started 20 freakin years ago. that level of pain, and they see nothing happening.

she is chalking it up to "past nsaid use", although, a- this started way before i ever took any pain meds routinely and b-i never really used them that heavily, anyway. i have been for the last 6 months, but things were well and truly out of control before that.

no advice beyond having another scope in 5 years, this time with "monitored anesthesia care". yeah, that sounds like a good idea. so how come you did it without that this time. honestly, i am thinking this is the last time i do this. if i dont have a tumor now, i dont think one can catch up to me now. i am 60 yo. and obviously whatever is going on is not showing up on your tests, so i say bump this shit.

what an ass.
