DavidB 0 #11 April 20, 2009 Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. Seriously, the prep is the worst of it. About the only suggestion I have is to make sure you have a roll of the SOFTEST paper you can find. Your rear WILL thank you! Enjoy the EPIC farts in recovery! When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonstark 8 #12 April 20, 2009 There IS a good side. It was the absolute best nap I have had in years. I never felt, heard or remembered a thing until I woke up under nice warm sheets with a tummy full of bubbles. Braaappp... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #13 April 20, 2009 Tomorrow will be a breeze compared to today. If the doc puts you under, you won't even know what hit you. Errr...you know what I mean. I was so hungry after mine, I mentioned to the nurse I was craving a greasy hamburger, which is unusual for me but she said is quite common for most people. She said to ease into eating with something light like a turkey sandwich or you'll be right back to where you are today. Just a FYI. Hope you get good news tomorrow! She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jdthomas 0 #15 April 20, 2009 Bummer man, hope you got some stuff to read in the bathroom. I agree that the prep was the worst and like skymama, i also craved a cheesburger and my wife got one for me that I maybe got two bites out of before going back to sleep. good luck and I hope that your test are all good.

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

warpedskydiver 0 #18 April 20, 2009 It is not a big deal, I had to have one every year for around six years. I was told the other day I do not need one again until I turn 50! I was always put under for it. It is nice to have the Chief of Clinic as your doctor.That is a three year reprieve! Prep was the worst the first time. That was the worst kind of stuff, you need to drink that while you are actually on the toilet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Superman32 0 #21 April 20, 2009 The worst part is for those that cheat and don't take all of their meds, so the doctor sees "mud" and can't visualize all of the colon... and for that , they get to do it all over again in next few days Inveniam Viam aut Faciam I'm back biatches!

JohnMitchell 16 #22 April 20, 2009 I hated not eating, and the prep wasn't great either. I don't remember more than 15 seconds of the procedure. What the hell, I have a clean bill of health for the next ten years.There's much worse things in this world than having great preventative health care. Suck it up, buttercup.

lawrocket 3 #24 April 20, 2009 Actually, I think the parting of the butt cheeks is the worst part. "Dammit. This is gonna happen." "Hey, you may enjoy this." "Dude. That is totally inappropriate."
