What kind of person does this for a living?

I went and saw the poop doctor today.

I know you wanted to know all about my colon so here goes.

If this Doctor was not good looking and funny, I don’t think that I would EVER go and see him. Not that I see him a lot. This is only the second time since the baby was born. But if he was fat, balding and talked in a nasal voice I would not have gone to see him again.

So I went to see him about problems that I have had since the baby was born and he said, “Well I better take a look.” He is talking about my pooper.

He wanted to see it.

“No,” I said,”I don’t think that is a good idea.”

So we kept talking again about my bowels and he said again, “Well, I better see what is going on.”

“No,” I said again. “I really don’t want to show you.”

It is not like I am completely weird or anything, but I really don’t like people to be looking at me from this point of view. I have gotten used to the gyno and all the great views that they get. But really, I don’t like to share views of my deficater.

So he went on to explain what I needed to do so that he could do the exam and left. Jeez, I HAD to show him then. I mean, really that is what I went there for. So the poop doctor could diagnose whatever the heck is going on.

He recommended a colonoscopy, ultrasound, and nerve test to be done. I said, “No.”

I really am not that committed to fixing things today. I need to work up to letting all sorts of people see my nether regions. I mean, really, when you have a baby you have nine months to work up and get used to people seeing your baby maker. I really need some time to let this all sink in, and then maybe I will be able to let everyone see.

Perhaps someday soon I will have pictures of my colon to share with you all. But I really need to get used to the idea first. In the mean time, this is what he sent me home with since I am completely opposed to all things probe like.

    Makayla, You are wonderful! Thank you for sharing and making me laugh this morning. I feel for you, on all levels and wish you luck.

    I am totally with you on the go-home-and-get-the-courage thing. I do the same thing with ANY type of blood work. Needles=:( So I never do all the necessary stuff in the same doctor’s visit. Good luck.

    Yeah, I am glad that my actual life amuses you.

    Just kidding. It amuses me also.
