Thanks Joy.
Already have my results. The doctor brought them less than an hour after the procedure. There´s efficiency for you. Glad to say, no serious problems, Just a couple of niggles.
I am always gobsmacked that I get test results either immediately or at least within 24 hours, complete with a print out for my own file.
Even more gobsmacked when the nurse came to ask me what I would like for breakfast while I was waiting!!!!

Had to drink the stuff between 3pm & 10 pm. Was more concerned about being up all night as I had to be at the hospital, an hour´s journey away by 8 am.
Happy to say that all went well & am now back home.
Can´t speak highly enough of the Spanish health service which must rate among the best in Europe & the staff are fantastic & so patient with people like me whose knowledge of Spanish medical term is very limited.

Dr's say that drinking 8 glasses of water a day
helps your skin look younger.


My advice:drink 8 glasses of wine a day
and you won't give a damn how old u look!
