Hey all, just added a delicious recipe for candied pecans, no oven needed takes 5 minutes. And no baking skill required LOL
 
Funny you should ask!
Also @bhawk-23 hows everything going?

Had my second colonoscopy in 3 weeks today, under general anesthesia so I'm not feeling all that well. I may have to go for a third before heading up for a specialized colonoscopy in Chicago. I was sleeping all afternoon and then woke up to Buffy, my BO, dead in the back of the yard. I've had better days. Lol

How about you??
 
Sorry for the gloomy post, you'll probably never ask again 🤦 seriously, I am well. I just went in for a routine colonoscopy with a new dr. She ordered all kinds tests and MRIs beforehand which irritated me because I am doing quite well with my Crohn's management. In 1 MRI they found a lesion on my ovary but my colon all looked good. Unfortunately, my scope showed a different picture. I do not have inflammation and my Crohn's is well managed. But I have a TON of polyps! She removed a few and they came back as precancerous. She had to go back and remove more today, 20, but still didn't get them all. Since there is no inflammation but so many polyps and my mom had colon cancer at age 44 (my age) she is thinking it is a genetic colon cancer and not IBD related.

In all, I am doing well. If I had not just "decided" to have a colonoscopy since it's been so long this would have been a much worse prognosis. But because I did, it will be just fine. For that, I am thankful 💜
