The prep was the worst part of it, I have a delicate heiny.

The worst part is not being able to eat for 24 hours prior to the procedure.

I am not looking forward to having this done at some point.

Did you make cumsies by accident or on purpose during?

That's kind of funny, I just my had my first colonoscopy recently as well

I also got my first endoscopy right after. Although they sedated me and I passed out before all the action started so I can't really give a play by play. I woke up drooling and confused but not feeling particularly violated

They sent me a whole bunch of pics afterwards though. I wasn't allowed to eat for 24 hours beforehand, so after I was done I went out to a restaurant and started chowing down, and in the middle of it I check my emails and suddenly I'm seeing what my ass looks like from the inside

I turned 45 this year but they fucking change the age every few years. When I was in my 20s it was 40, in my 30s it was 50, and when I hit 40, it was 45 again.

That didn't bother me so much, it's that fluid prep medicine you have to take which I'm sure is just stomach drano

Just had mine a month ago.

They knocked me out with some Michael Jackson propofol and I woke up 30 minutes later. Didn’t feel a thing. Walked home from the hospital. Doctor said I’m good for 10 years. They did find some Brock Lesnar diverticula though. Harmless unless they get infected.

My brother has this done frequently because of his Crohn's disease.....not fun at all. Hope you're doing ok Mr. Newman.

I unfortunately went through this as well about a month ago (I am 39). For me the most difficult part was getting over the mental hurdle of what was about to take place… then the “prep” which was pretty miserable as well. Although I’m glad I did it, health is wealth and it’s important that we as men do this to avoid and get out ahead of any potential issues that could arise.

I was awake for mine. I don't use any pharmaceuticals unless it's absolutely necessary. I had to convince the doctor to even do it. He said he had only ever done 3 or 4 on patients who weren't sedated.

Everyone from the nurses to the doctor to the anesthesiologist kept trying to convince me that it was a really bad idea. In the end it was painful, but they overhyped it a bit.

Apparently it's the norm in Europe to not be sedated. Not so much in Canada/US.

Test come back clean?

Was the prep fluids just a sh*t causing agent getting everything out?

My body is ready.

Did it make you more open to using grindr in the future?

My mom passed from colon cancer. I need to get this done at some point.
