I found out yesterday I don't need to take the Covid test for my colonoscopy, since I've been vaccinated. Yay me.😁 The only thing better than a negative Covid test is no Covid test at all. Yay you! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one asked if I’ve been vaccinated, either! But I have to have one before my pulmonologist visit and breathing test in November. Yeah, on one of the pages of instructions, it said a Covid test was needed, unless you had been vaccinated in the past 14 days; I called just to make sure test wasn't needed, and they verified that I was good to go. Jim will need a Covid test next Friday, since his knee surgery will be on the following Monday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True story, Bob! Have a great Cruise! I want to cruise so badly, that if Jim wasn't having his knee surgery, I would've book a cruise out of Cape Liberty. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mo&fran Posted September 17, 2021 #31005 Share Posted September 17, 2021 We received our Abbott test kit yesterday. Took 2 days. Our current plan is to use this as a backup, the county has free drive up rapid test sites, one less than a mile from our home. I drive by there a couple of times a day, and I never see a line at all, so if there are still there, we will use that. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckynana Posted September 17, 2021 #31007 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I know. I found it to be confusing the way it was written. That's why I wound up calling. When I said I had given the Office my vaccination card to be copied, he looked it up and said I was good to go. So weird. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both negative! Time to start packing. If only we were allowed to take a wine filled broom closet with us. Excellent! Now all the fun anticipation of your cruise can begin without having the concern of a test weighing upon you. Will you keep us posted and send us some photos while on the Allure? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way some of these covid protocols are written for various things is so confusing when it doesn't have to be. I hope my Gen Y son writes better than this at his job. When is your colonoscopy? Good luck. I promise I will get one done this year. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great TV. Thank you to whoever posted it. I forgot all about that series. It was really good. It watched every week when it was first on Showtime. If I remember correctly I think it mostly filmed in the UK. Maybe I will re-watch on Netflix this winter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prep is so much better, now that I can mix the miralax with Gatorade. So much better! Years ago, the stuff in the gallon container was so awful, I used to keep it cold in the freezer, and drink it very quickly each time I had to take it.Yuck! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckynana Posted September 17, 2021 #31016 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Question: How do you find out the time that the ships have their Sail Away? The Equinox, and I believe the Connie, are sailing out of Fort Lauderdale today. Does anyone know the timetable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonTexasNY Posted September 17, 2021 #31017 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Sign on my local Kroger's entrance door. "Masks Required". Store clerk was standing at the inside door I assumed to be sure it was enforced. However, his mask was only covering his mouth, his nose exposed. Stopped into Sprouts and didn't notice a sign but everyone had on a mask. I feel like we're taking one step ahead and two behind. 🙁 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just fake book a cruise the week after and the departure time is listed. Might not be the same exact time, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a "veteran", I kept an eye on him. He had to drink a "lousy" mixture, but before drinking, he was prescribed "Pramin".... I gather every country has its "favorite prep" 😁 For me, the worst part is the hunger.... My gastro friend advised, after I complained, to schedule it early in the morning, saying that sleeping make it easier on the hunger. DH had it at 4.30 PM, and was OK. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy to hear his procedure went well. The guy Eric goes will only schedule colonoscopies for mornings as he does his office visits in the afternoon. I coudn't imagine waiting until 430 in the afternoon to get done - that would drive me bonkers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dani, I always schedule mornings; no way I could wait until afternoon. At least we can have jello, broth, italian ice, etc. the day before the procedure. I'm glad to hear all went well with your DH😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
