I had one
Very nice radiographer girl. NO bedside manner though. If it was round the other way and I was the radiographer, I'd at least buy her a couple of drinks and tell her what a great arse she's got before I did anything to it. |

I postponed my first scope last year. My doc was okay with it because I don't have much family history. Doesn't sound like much fun.

There was some understeer. Just a sensation of "you have got to be kidding me" Absolutely painless but a definite awareness. Then I started cracking jokes about how cleaned out I was. "Look at that farking colon. Will you just look at it". Hope this helps. Have fun. The whole agony thing is grossly overrated.

Unless they poke a hole in an intestine...then the real fun begins.

You know the difference between a proctologist and a flight attendant?
The proctologist only deals with one arsehole at a time!

Wait till you get the GoPro up your wang, makes a colonoscopy seem like a tempting menu item in Bankok.
As you stare unbelieving at the 20oz Pepsi bottle sized lump they tell you is about to be forced up your unforcible you chuckle uncomfortably in disbelief. This levity is soon replaced by amazement as this bastard actually makes its way in the the business end of Mr Wiggly. The euphoria of that amazement soon wears off when your informed "ok, this is going to hurt some now that I have to power it past your urinary sphincter muscle". "Pardon? "Your going to *power* what past my what now? What does that mean?"...."Oh good Lord stop...sweet fancy Moses the humanity!" Then you're done...Hope you all enjoy yours as much as I did

Just went to my brother-in-law's funeral. Waited until 60 for his first colonoscopy. By then it was too late.

".....when I wake up."
Stay awake for the affair, it really isn't that bad. Then as soon as they're done you can get your clothes on and gtf out of there. Can drive yourself, otherwise someone else has to. They can always put you out if it too uncomfortable for you.

Well that's done.
Removed two polyps and found a pocket of diverticulitis which could explain the discomfort I've had lately lower left. All in all a good prognosis. The piece of mind is well worth the effort and then some. Don't wait till it's too late guys, git er done.
