OK, who will admit to using a colon cleanser? What was the reason? Did it work for the reason you wanted it to? What was it like?
I'm really curious. I've read up on colon cleansing before but never tried it because I'm unsure of the side effects. I'm the type that needs to answer all my questions, about anything, before I'll try it. Personal experiences make great information. Anybody want to share?
My little sister has IBS. I wonder if she's done this to see if it would help. I'll have to ask her too.

Might Be Infertile Now
I was looking for one of my posts about car insurance (should just go to carinsurancelist.com instead of wandering through one of my dozen blogs looking for my notes) when I realized I was posting about my illness on here, and my stay at the hospital, and yet I never wrote what I was in the hospital for. Big duh!
I was hospitalized with Pelvic Inflammatory Disease due to bacterial vaginosis. Usually it is STD related but in our case, as all the hospital tests proved to the disbelieving doctors, that was not the case for us. I can't believe how unbelieveable people (doctors in our case) find it that married couples are actually faithful to each other! They were seriously irritating to both myself and my husband for the entire time I was in the hospital.
Doctor to me: "Are you married?"
Me: "Yes."
Doctor: "Do you have multiple partners?"
Me (thinking didn't I just answer that when I said I was married): "Of course not, I'm married."
Doctor: "Does your husband have multiple partners?"
Me: "Not if he knows what is good for him. No, he wouldn't do that to me or to us."
I received these questions throughought my 2-1/2 day stay at the hospital. I was horribly sick from the antibiotics and even hallucinating (those were seriously freaky) from them and then to have irritating doctors asking these repeated questions...ugh! The test results, which took a few days, shut those questions up thankfully.
So I was hospitalized for several days and given major antibiotics through the IV. I was so bad, they were worried about abcesses and the need for surgerty. I may be infertile now but I won't know more until I see my gynecologist for further testing to see if there is scarring and how bad.

My Stay at the Hospital
Today has been the first time in awhile that I've been able to post. I was really sick and hospitalized for awhile. I missed my kids while in the hospital, even though my husband brought up our littlest one in the morning and then all of them in the evenings to see me. It's not the same - being away from them and missing things.
Even though I felt horrible, I was ecstatic when they discharged me from the hospital. I took a good look in the mirror the morning I was to be discharged and was shocked to see the zits I'd accumulated around my nose. I looked like I needed the best acne products instead of antibiotics for my infection. Ha ha. Plus, when you can smell yourself, you know the desperate need of a shower!
My "private" room wasn't so private in terms of bathroom needs. It was more like a prison cell. The toilet was IN the room across from my bed with just a curtain to pull around for privacy. I am a very private person (married 14.5 years and still have never gone to the bathroom in front of my husband before) so having the toilet IN my room was just plain weird.
