Rebeccas stomach hurt. She said that sometimes it felt like someone was peeling the skin off her belly; that pain felt worse than when she gave birth 17 years ago. She finally went to a doctor. He asked a lot of questions, and then examined her. He decided that she needed a couple of ultra-sound tests.
The tests revealed that she had two small ovarian cysts. The doctor said he did not think that those cysts were causing the problem. He wanted to do another test. It was called a colonoscopy. Rebecca told her boyfriend Ron about the doctors suggestion.
A colonoscopy?! Youve got a problem in your belly, and he wants to examine your butt? Where did you find this quack? Ill bet he got his degree off the Internet.
Rebecca asked her boyfriend where he got his medical degree from. Of course, he had no medical degree, but he told Rebecca that it was just common sense.
If your car isnt running right, and the mechanic wants to look in your trunk to find the problem, what would you think? Would you let him charge you good money to examine your trunk, or would you go find a mechanic who knows what hes doing?
Rebecca went to a medical site on the Internet later and discovered that some colon problems definitely could cause stomach pains.
