Heal thyself

That was the most traumatic and unpleasant experience I have ever had. Next time I have an ulcer I am just going to have to hope that it clears up naturally. It only lasted about ten minutes, but ten minutes is a long time to manually over-ride your gag reflex, "throat clearing" reflex, and "swallow that pool of drool collecting at the back of your tounge" reflex. The more I concentrated on not coughing, the more I JUST HAD TO.

Anyway, it's over now. They found a few little ulcers, but nothing big enough to close up with their laser.

As wrote before, I usually would never go to the doctor, always trusting in my body to do the right thing and heal itself. I'm almost over the hill now though, so I thought I should check out this whole "doctor" concept, and what do they tell me? "Go home and heal yourself." And by the way, you owe us $200 for the opportunity to have a camera shoved down your throat.

AND THEY DIDN'T EVEN LET ME SEE THE TV SCREEN WHILE THEY PEEKED IN MY TUMMY!!!!
