So I thought I was going in tomorrow for a check-up, but the doctor office called and apparently I'm getting another camera job and I'm not supposed to eat for a while. should I call and ask for more details or is that annoying?

Be glad they're not asking you to drink a gallon of go-lightly 12 hours prior. That's what I'm used to seeing for colonoscopy prep.

So seriously, what should I do with my gun since I've been genuinely considering suicide for the last 12-hours? Its the threat of sphincterectomy that's really doing me in.

I don't really care to deal with all this ---- (lol), the threat of wearing a diaper for six weeks, the pain, and rectal exams twice per year for the rest of my life. It's not fun and the constant pain and discomfort are also not fun. This is not how I want to live the rest of my life. My GF can take care of the kitty.

What I mean is, medical science has advanced somewhat in the last 30 years. Example: My dad was scared to death that they would bag him when he had prostate cancer. Guess what? No bag. Of course, now I need to be more diligent about getting checked...
