I’ve got to have a colonoscopy. Anyone had one?
Yeah, had one last year. Was diagnosed with collitis. So I get them yearly now. Yay. They’re not too bad to be honest, the worst part for me was the taste of the gallons of laxative you have to take prior. |

They gave me some laxative to take 24 hours before which literally clears you out🤣 The procedure wasn't too bad, not painful just weird as they Pump you full of air. Afterwards they leave you in a room on your own so that you can disperse all of the air at your own pace🤣 Edit: Not sure if there's a Mens health thread if not maybe a good idea to have one. |

I've had plenty of Endsocopies, A Colonoscopy and a Catheter in (not at the same time i may add). The Catheter whilst unpleasant wasn't anywhere near as painful as i thought it would be. And yes, the Colonoscopy you're sedated for, i really don't remember much at all apart from hearing them say a couple of times if i was ok, it felt like 5 minutes but was about 45. The drink is disgusting, much the worst part of it. It's got a slimy texture so you can't drink it quickly. |

The endoscopy I had went up my hooter and down my throat. I watched it on the screen.

The first few endoscopies i had i just had the throat spray anesthetic but didn't watch, however for the last few i get sedation for that as well, much prefer not to be really aware of what they're doing.

Colonoscopy - Yeah, the drink really is disgusting! I also didn't like the feeling when it 'goes round bends' inside your intestine. I was a little nervous (understandably) about the 'entry' but the dull internal prodding' was much, much worse. I found it quite horrible as it made me very queasy.

Not sure if that’s worse than feeling the instrument they use to put a stent into your heart artery. I felt them breveting around when the did it, oh gives me the heebie jeebies thinking about it. |

The last page or so of this thread perfectly sums up the joys of getting old.
Any youngsters reading - look what you have to look forward too!

Summat’s gunna get you in the end - just a matter of when.

Clem calls the deceased’s family asking them to waive any refund. |
