Hi guys, I'm back! Anybody miss me?

Rocklobster
The last week has been a challenge. I checked in last Monday morning for surgery, and am now prostateless. As an added bonus I'm also cancer-free, so I suppose it was a reasonable trade-off. So here I sit, super-pubic and Foley catheters firmly installed and draining efficiently. Actually, their devil-spawned bowel-prep one day prior was worse than the surgery.

I'd like to find the guy who coined the name "GoLytely" for the product, strap him to a chair, and play the drum solo from "Wipe Out" on his head. Man.

At any rate I do bleeb a giveaway is in order. It may be tomorrow - I'm a little tired right now and am going to hit the bed for awhile, but it will be forthcoming.

Later! [:D]

    So now you are just a crawdad? Glad to hear all is going pretty well in recovery. You did not much much, just the usual gripping and whining.

    Too much information for some of these yahoos - welcome back - neighbor just underwent the same operation - he keeps flashing me his urine bag attached to his ankle - to gross me out - it's working![xx(]

    ... beats the alternative, though.

    Hi RL. Take it easy for the next two or three weeks. Make sure you get your quarterly PSA checks too. Good luck.

    Congratulations on being cancer free. I expect I'd give them just about any body part they wanted to do that.

    The new and improved NuLytely is much worse than the GoLytely. I've done them both (for colonoscopy). Neither one is on my top ten favorite things to do. [:D]

    Yeah, at your age you probably would not miss any of them. Us younger guys still make good use of the parts.[}:)]
