Henlo, trying this Lemmy thing out for the first time.

It's working!

You've done the hard part and found an instance to access... Now the next big question: which app to use to access it? 🤔

[–] jesu@aussie.zone 1 points 2 years ago

Huzzah! Was browsing via dbzer0 web for a long while and came across Sync as they posted more (or got more up arrows).

So installed and running now (Android).

UI/UX pretty and easy enough to sign up for Aussie.zone was low entry 👌

Camera up the bum booked in for today... shitting myself, literally and figuratively at they minute. Lots of bowel cancer on both sides of the family tree so more a matter of "when" than "if".

This goo they make you drink is so bad I'm tempted to take my chances with the cancer to be honest.

@trk @brisbane Sympathies. Also have substantial family history of BC, so I have to get the bum cam regularly.

All I can say is that the feeling when you wake up afterwards and it’s all over, is just fantastic :)

Good luck!

🤞hope the check comes back clear

Results not fantastic, but not fatal either. Looks like I'm in for a few more cameras though... which is fine, but geez I hope that poo drink comes in a new flavour soon. Also I demand better coffee in the recovery room.

One person before me was crying and being given referrals to specialists so I think they may have had much worse news 😔

@trk @brisbane You can add cordial to the drink to make it better. And drinking it very cold helps.

Glad you didn’t get fatal news.

Wow, it really was hot. At least it’s not humid like Japan was.
