They call it an "endoscopy" and the camera is built into a capsule. The method is that they plaster receivers on the stomach and a main receiver in a belt that one has to put on. Then the capsule is swallowed and as it travels through the entire digestive system, sending a gazillion photos to the receivers and the main receiver on the belt transfers the photos to a large medical PC linked to a computer. The computer then analysis the photos and it shows up all of the bad spots in the digestive system.
The reason that the previous gastronomy and the colonoscopy was not accepted, is that the new doctor found wrongs that were not corrected by the previous doctor. Some blood spots were not cauterized even though it cost us a fortune as it was a private practice.
Our GP in desperation arranged for me to get an appointment in a government hospital that costs a fraction of the previous charges. Problem is that the old hospital is dilapidated, and one has to wait in queues for half a day. But the saving grace is that the new doctor is one of the best.
So now the gastronomy was done, and I am booked to return on the 18th of May for the repeat of the colonoscopy. They were also able to look inside the start of my inner intestine and some blood lesions also showed up.
According to the doctor, I might not need the camera pill episode, as he thinks that once all of the blood lesions are cauterized, my inner bleeding problem might be solved. If not, the camera system will be used.
Sorry about the long reply, but I wanted to bring you up to date. Living with a critically low iron level is not easy, but as you say, we old timers can beat the odds better than most.
Amazing how the Spirit works as your donations has arrived to meet the needs of many people.
Thank you once again and the Lord will continue to take care of my health. Just as He has done for you.
Blessings and thank you for the care. Please share our confirmation of the receipt with our Lady Robin.
!PIZZA !LOLZ and !LUV to both of you.

The doctor is the best, that is really all that matters even though waiting around in the hospital can't be any fun. Let's hope that dealing with the blood lesions will do the trick, you have too much to do to be lying around and not feeling well.
That's great news about the arrival of the donations, now we can put that matter to rest and our continued support of your hard work is the least we can do.
I will let Robin know, she tends to be a worry wort even when I ensure her that we will work this out.
Thanks for everything my friend, especially your friendship!
Thank you kindly for the positive message my friend, as it boosts my hope.
Yeah, great news indeed especially now we know who the kind stranger is. I now also know your surname and it was a pleasant surprise to see who our benevolent sponsors are 😊 !LOLZ
Marian is also a worry wort, as she is almost OCD in keeping our record clean. Now she wants to know if you guys received her thank you letters, or if she should send them all again ???
We also appreciate your friendship, as it is not about the funds, but rather our similar hearts.
Take care and please don't try to jump around too much youngster.
!PIZZA and !LUV
I'm not sure I overlooked it the last time, but I didn't find the spot where you can leave a memo. In the past, I'd leave a little note along with the donation so that you knew where it came from. I probably just overlooked it.
We have received thank you letters from Marian in the past. That is a great way for us to know that the funds have landed.
No jumping too high, but just a little.
Enjoy the remainder of your weekend.
No problem, as the identity discovery was a real pleasure for us. So, the memo factor has now become obsolete. !LOLZ
We are battling a bit with the power cuts, and you will receive another one soon.
Hahaha, we are so similar with our excuses when it comes to push things a little bit too much, but we dare not complain, as then we will face a typhoon of recriminations from you know who. They normally start off with; I told you not to...........................................!
Thank you and we met with a baboon tribe today at the top of one of our mountain passes. So the weekend was good.
How did your visit go?

In reading your last post you mention that in the winter, power cuts will increase. that has to be a real hassle. The only good thing that I can see from this terrible situation is that it keeps your electric bill down.
Our visit went great. It was a quick overnight, but any time spent with family is always a good thing.
Hahaha, we both laughed at this, as thankfully our electricity bill is halved.
We don't use a heater, as warm blankets do the thing, but it is the lost hours that gets my goat.
Yep, I thought that you guys would enjoy that short adventure. Now I hope that it will be their turn to visit, but the way that I know you guys it will not be imposed.
Blessings and !BEER
With us being retired it's a lot easier for us to accommodate their hours.
