DO what ever you feel help,s you. I to was watching a YouTube Video of this man about 62, with an Ostomy bag (sorry If I spelled it wrong)
He had to for sever health issues or his life would be over.
My was he ever upbeat, such an attitude, just so relaxed, explaining the procedure of removing and cleaning.
It takes him about 45 minutes for the morning bathroom routine..I know now to stop complaining if it takes me a little while to thoroughly clean my butt after a BM.
I,m glad you are going for the scope in two week's, get it done and over with, take care and have a relaxing evening, take a Epsom salt's bath, I find they usually send me to la la land..
