I went to the Hospital in Alkmaar, the doctor told me I have to swallow a video capsule to see what is wrong with my digestive tract. It's totally new in Holland.
Is anybody here familiar with it? They're going to give me a phonecall to make an appointment for this month.
I most say that I'm a bit nervous about it.
Video Capsule?

Re: Video Capsule?
Well, obviously it'll be a small camera that you will swallow, that will record video as it goes through the digestive process.
It should be relatively safe, plus if they let you keep the video, you could show it on home movies night or something.
But, it will at least be better than taking a camera on a roto-rooter snake and having it shoved up the hindquarters.
But heres some links for the Video Capsule stuff.

Re: Video Capsule?
That's great and a good explanation on the site. It's not bigger than the medicine I took. There's only one little problem, my large intestine is working backwards if it doesn't accept the capsule.
Thanks Senor Hugo, I'm not nervous anymore.
I'll let you know when it's done Dinobot.
