Loaded up on doc appointments for the year

Annual checkup and blood work. Cancer screening for some family history. Also got a nagging shoulder looked at and treated with a steroid injection. Happy it wasn't a tear.

Colonoscopy is a few weeks out.

Take care of yourselves brothers.

Good on you. You only get one body, might as well look after it.

i was just wondering about this the other day, and i think i might be one of those guys..

i just realized something. i've had my current physician for about 4 years, and not once has their office called to ask me to come in for a physical. other than some meds and refills, it's completely slipped my mind.

now i miss my mom. i think that she was that call. ouch. i should probably go and get my balls cupped.

Good for you man. We gotta take care of ourselves.

Good luck on the butt probe!

(FWIW, I'll usually get an XL bowl of phò after to break the colonoscopy fasting. 10/10; highly recommend. It's easy on the gut and is usually extra tasty on an empty stomach.)
