I have this theory about surgeons that if

you go to a surgeon enough times that the surgeon will recommend surgery. I've been told that's not the case with my surgeon - he'll only recommend it if it is absolutely necessary. I believe it. He's a good guy. I went in today for my third sigmoidoscopy and I was worried that he might say surgery was imminent. Good news - nothing has changed and I can wait another 10 weeks before I go have another sigmoidoscopy. That's fine with me - I don't exactly enjoy the procedure. I have another theory - Sigmund Freud would have a field day with sigmoidoscopies, especially if you actually enjoyed the procedure.
