No running, but hard work all the same

Whilst this update has nothing to do with running, it does have something to do with my medical past and it could have an effect on this week's runs. I was in two minds if I should put this in or not, but in the warts and all approach I said I'd take I figured why not?!

A few months ago, I was getting very painful cramps in my guts that lasted for several minutes. Being a boy, I put this down to just eating too much or just eating the wrong things again. My other half finally insisted I get myself down to the docs after a few days of feeling especially crap. Following a prod and a poke, and some sample pots, I have been booked in for a pair of internal scans tomorrow.

The scans themselves don't worry me too much, as I'll be sedated. The packets of preparation that I have to take are more of a worry. I've never willingly given myself diarrhoea before, and doing it is not the best way to while away a Sunday evening. I've got to take more of the damn stuff in the morning too. And I'm hungry enough as it is now, only having eaten a bacon sarnie today. I can't eat until at least 4pm tomorrow, but when I do I'm going to start with the remaining bacon in the fridge before ordering a chinese-curried-pizza thing for dinner. And have it with a side order of cheese or something else fattening and good.
