I went to the Mayo Clinic yesterday for a procedure to see why I am having trouble swallowing of late.

It involved me being put to sleep and having a camera sent down my throat to see what is going on.

And since I didn’t wake up from induced sleep the last time, I told them that I sleep during the day because I work at night and that I may not wake up quick.

So the guy putting me to sleep took that into account and gave me a very good dose of caffeine along with the painkillers and I woke up feeling good. Real good.

No pain. Wide awake. Dizzy. Definitely a bit loopy. But wide awake and bushy tailed. Man did I sleep good when that wore off though. And it was good, restful sleep as well.

Turns out they did find something that could affect my ability to swallow right. Nothing super bad. Very early stages in fact. But I expect my doctors will have some plans for me soon.

And I woke up to meet them. That is good.
