Anyone here had a Colonoscopy? (sp) Garden hose with a camera up the intestines!

There is nothing to be nervous about. You are put under a light, general anesthetic and feel nothing. By far the worst part of the procedure is the laxative. You have to drink copious amount and you poop for hours on end. No pain during or after the procedure.

Family member had one- Chris's description is fair.
-
That part will be easy, I havent had any food in almost 3 days now.
I eat & my stomach just grows like a basketball so I dont eat.
Thanks Chris!! I Appreciatte the help!!

I can't imagine it's any different than those weekends you dress up, call yourself Carmella and troll the local gay scene.

DANG I thought you were normal lol
Well been there done that, depends on the actual procedure. Your GP should have given you a heads up as what to expect.
One of the ones I had done was absofrickenlut ely NO fun, the other no biggy.

Now you're just going to make poor David even more nervous. I've had it done several times by different doctors and it is often a topic of conversation among we oldsters at work (yes old timers do talk about these things), and I have never heard anyone say they had a bad experience.

My Mom & I are very similar in many ways & she has irritable bowel syndrome so I'm hoping thats all it is. My Dad had one for Prostate cancer & he said it wasnt bad but make sure they arent cheap with the drugs to knock out the pain. I hope mine is just irritable because the other choice isn't so nice!! I'm sure I'll be fine but just the thought is sort of Freaky!! Camera's on Garden Hoses cant be a Fun Day overall! :bigeyes;

I can not comment on the procedure, but i hope all goes well for you.

eh im gonna have to travel this same route here shortly. and im young... dam my family history of cancer :mad:
-
If you have a strong family history start getting checked for prostate exams Now!
I saw what that cancer did to my Dad & it's not pretty! Even if the operation catches it like his case, the next 2-3 years of Suffering are not worth saving 10 years off the end of your life in his opinion & said he would Never Again do the operation!
I think I just have Irritable Bowel Syndrome which is nothing compared to Prostate Cancer.
Chris I sent you a PM back. Thanks!

I was curious when I saw the word "prostate".

With the local, you'll never know if the pressure on your shoulders is the doc's hands, getting a grip!!
