Dak over Cousins was a mistake after all . Dang . <| sep |> i ' m just not a fan of big rock . I ' ve had most of their nonseasonals . average at best . I know a lot of people in this city like their product , but I just can ' t do it . saw someone mention purple gas . I actually think it ' s one of BR ' s better brews . but it ' s so weird , like that WR Cowbell . you can ' t have more than 1 or 2 . <| sep |> Well , it ' s complicated . It was unbearable , some of the worst pain I ' ve ever had , but when I went to the GP he chose not to give me an enemalaxative because at the time he said it may increase the pressure and told me to get a CT Scan the next day at the hospital if the drugs he did give me didn ' t offer relief . Which they didn ' t , at allNow , every doctor in the hospital , and one of my best mates who is an Emergency Doctor , were very sceptical of this direction by the GP as in their minds it simply wasn ' t how that worked . Now , it ' s a bit weird as obviously it worked out for the best . While it ' s been hard if it hadn ' t been found and had continued to grow and burst I ' d be looking at tests and chemo and radiation for years to come instead of a painful but relatively easy surgery . When I saw my GP after this however he implied that he hadn ' t ' solved ' it so simply because he thought it may be something more than simple constipation . Is my GP a genius I ' ve always found him great or made a mistake and covering his butt ? Who knows . All I know is that it worked out well in the end . As it was , even the journey at the hospital was a bit weird the first day at the first hospital they did the ct scan , xrays and more and then gave me an enema . This meant I finally got pain relief but then , just before they sent me home , they told me there was ' something ' in my bowels that they thought was a lesion and told me I should get a colonoscopy to make sure it was benign . I woke up at home the next day feeling great . until I saw two missed calls on my mobile from an unknown number . When they called again it was a new doctor at the first hospital who said a radiologist had looked at my CT Scan again after I left , and got a second opinion , and they were worried I ' d got the wrong diagnosis . This is when I was told to get to the second , bigger hospital ASAP and get a surgical consult . A day later I got a colonoscopy to confirm it all , and the next day I was under the knife . Sorry if all that was too much info !
