Now, if you get your prostate checked, make sure your doc doesn't have both hands on your shoulders during the procedure.

Popeye, they will give you Versed and Fentanyl. Most of us don't have the benefit of being high as a kite when long, large objects are forced into our rectum.
Count your blessings and try to enjoy the ride.




Hey Heather, yeah, I talked to someone who had it done last fall and they said they were wheeled into the procedure room and the next thing they knew they were waking up and it was all done.
LOL, but some of you like it when long large objects are inserted into your rectums especially if they vibrate.

Popeye, it's a cool drug.  You feel nothing and you remember nothing.  They should give it more often.    


Katy, I agree.
And you're a good little spokeswoman for Colonoscopies!
And I just got back from shitting spring water!
Level, thankyou for those kind sentiments and your concern for my prostate.

Status: offline 		A colonoscopy really is a must for everyone over 50.  But even that doesn't guarantee you'll be free from the risk of colorectal cancer.  For one thing, the cancer can start on the outside of the colon wall.  It would not be found by a colonoscopy.  Then there have been stories of colonoscopies done too quickly, and the doctor can miss things.  And, they have found that polyps aren't the only warning sign.  There are flat growths that are easy to miss.

I'd recommend a full colonoscopy every five years, starting at age 50 for those with no family history or risk factors.  A first degree relative who has had colorectal cancer would qualify for a genetic risk. 

Also, I'd recommend an annual test for fecal occult blood.  Traces of blood might be present that you won't be able to see.  There are a number of diagnostic tests that are effective at determining the presence of blood in fecal matter.  One very convenient test involves putting a tablet in the toilet after a bowel movement.  'Hands off' as they say.

Colon cancer is a significant killer; early detection defiinitely can save lives.

That's true, I'm not concerned or anything like that it's just the inconvenience that's the pain in the ass.....


As a fan of toilet humor, you guys are just killin' me here.

But seriously, I once found a site where people who had that done posted their lil anecdotes about their experiences. They were all told very conversationally and apparenly with a dash of humor. I had tears.

While I do believe I will be "skipping" this procedure, should it ever be forced upon me, I'm going to have to go the route of humor as well. Such as looking at the doc with a squint and raised eyebrow and asking "So, if I get wood when you jam that thing in me, does that make me gay?" And the timeless "Hey doc, you just better make sure you know which hole you're goin' in."

Oh boy!
I get to "drink the coolade" today.
A whole gallon of it starting at 2 pm to 6pm.
Then, take some pills and drink a bottle of magnesium citrate.
Then wake up at 0400 tommorow and pickup a neighbor and leave here at 0500 for Charleston V.A. Hospital to "take the pipe."
I'm glad they're going to sedate me for the procedure.
They say that it can be "uncomfortable" without sedation.
That's why someone else has to be with me, they won't give you sedation unless someone else is there with you and signs a form that they'll be driving you home.
Anyone else in here had this done lately?


Lately?  Hell, it sounds like my standing weekend plans. 

Oh wait, that's just taking it up the ass paying the bills.  Nevermind.

I had two last year - the "short scope" and the full colonoscopy.  You're pretty gasious afterwards as your body releases the air they put in you, but I don't recall any soreness after.  I just wanted to take it easy that night when I got home.

Good luck to you!

Status: offline 		Are colonic polyps as common as  nasal polyps .
Is there a connection, ie a tendency to get 'em in the nose indicate a likelyhood of getting 'em up the arse.
Only arskin'
I have had to submit smears on I think three different occasions and so far have survived with no negative results.

Popeye, grit your teeth and loosen your sphincters and all should be well !
Its all in the mind you know.

Status: offline 		Hiya, back home, all went well 4 polyps cut out and sent to Path Lab.
The Doc said everything "looks good" if you like lookin' up someone's bum.
The Doc loves my Boston accent, he was trying to imitate it, the Nurses were funny as hell!
A neighbor lady drove down with me to drive me back.
And after we'd checked in and were sitting in the waiting room with about 20 other people a lady came in and called out my name and asked; "Who's going to be driving you home, we need to get her name?"
I said in a strong voice; "Driving me home? Why my concubine Leslie here!"
She gave me a good wack and everyone burst out laughing.
The poor lady was in tears trying to write my friend's name.
They do it assembly line style at the V.A. Hospital.
There was another veteran, (Marine, Tet veteran) next to me on another cart in the prep room and two more right across the hall.
One of the Nurses told me that some days they might do 30 or 40 colonoscopys.
And, they didn't knock me out, they gave me some type of sedative and I was awake and watching the whole thing on a t.v. screen.
Not at all unpleasant.
And they said that they had to blow air into me to inflate the colon so expect flatulence for the rest of the day.
Man, I've been ripping out some good ones!
My gut is sore from having to drink all that solution yesterday and the digestive system is sore from having to work overtime.
But it's done for another few years and the results are good.

My mother had to walk past a packed waiting room to exit the hospital while letting out those deep trouser rumbles, each time she would say, "For my sins, I'm a ventriloquist, for her sins my daughter has flatulence."

You're a good catylist to put this into people's heads, to make sure they have a colonoscopy every few years.
They definately save lives!
