I ingested this little ..electronic capsule. I also had a monitor about the size of an old-time transistor radio to wear on my belt or otherwise not have more than 5 feet away for me. As the capsule passed along on its journey, it communicated with the monitor, telling it whatever information it picked up.

I also had to keep a little diary... but that's a whole other chapter here..

I was to do this for as long as it took the capsule to depart from me, or for 7 days, whichever came sooner. I swallowed it on Monday, and it came out the other end on Thursday.
So how do you know you've passed the capsule ???
Has it got little spikey things on it so you know for sure ??? Or do they give you a set of chopsticks to go look for it ??
Sounds like fun....something to do on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
