It checks inside my nose and in my throat. They spray my nose with
numbing stuff but it doesn't work that great and I still feel that
sucker poking around.
I had the scan with the radioactive sugar. They gave me some really nice
relaxation medicine. I wanted to know if they gave it as take-out.
That stuff was wonderful!

Yikes! That sounds a lot worse than being injected with radioactive
sugar and having to be still for an long while. Does the snake do a
visual check of the insides of passages?

It is better than great. It's super! I consider it an upgrade, though I
still have to get the snake stuffed up my nose twice a year.

She is off the road. We bought a regular stuck to dirt house in 2005 and
continued to RV part time for a couple of years, but DH's health is not
good so we sold the last RV and now we travel like "normal" folks in a
Honda Civic, and airplane or a cruise ship.

3 years is great. I requested (and got) a few extra 3 month checkups.
One found mets to my brain. I'm I've been on a 6 month cycle for the
last couple of years, and don't plan to change it any time soon.
Ain't it a great feeling to be upgraded? Or is it a downgrade?
OT: Whatever happened to The Road Princess?

Hooray for you Bobert!!
I saw my ENT on Friday and after 3 years I'm also NED. I got my checkups
reduced from every 3 months to every 6 months, too.

6 years, 3 weeks, 2 days ago, I was diagnosed with Small Cell Lung
Cancer. Today I got the "Still Clear" from my Oncologist. It's now been
4 1/2 years of NED reports. Next check in 6 months.
Life Is Good. Tomorrow Barb and I are going down the coast to visit some
friends who live off the grid in Big Sur. I'll take some photos and post
them on the web.
