Just had my first colonoscopy AMA

[GSP_37]

During prep, did you feel like nothing else is coming out then suddenly tons of liquid came out and not necessarily when you were ready for it to come out?

 

[GSP_37]

Nothing chalky, but some clear magnesium something liquid in a small bottle. Tasted a bit like concentrated soda.

 

[jeff7b9]

No. It really is necessary for men 40+ and it s really benign. Drink that hateful laxative, shit your ass out, they put you to sleep and wake up feeling nothing.

No thanks sherbro.

I have made my choice.

Do you know if the “doctor” used protection?

 

[Thai Domi]

Best nap I ever had.

 

[nonoob]

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

Nothin' to it after prep. Asked mine for a 2nd opinion & a bigger camera.
​

What is the preparation? Cleaning your b hole?

Yes, by removing all rings, watches, TV remotes, rodents, etc.​

They knocked me out with some Michael Jackson propofol

Propofol works Super Quick, even makes roofies jealous.​

 

[StonedLemur]

the prep, -5
the cute triage nurse who helped me undress and prep, 10
the waiting for the doctor, -10
the drugs to knock me out, 10
not shitting in my friends car on the way home, priceless

Seems to be a decent average, I won't freak out when they tell me I need to go thanks to this reply sir lol.

I didn't trust a thing so spent most of the afternoon and evening yesterday on the toilet.

I asked why I have to drink that liquid instead of just eating Taco Bell for dinner the day before.

it's a valid point

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

pat dry only huh?

Yes there are many lines for these procedures:

* That part where you were groggy and saw the doctor pulling his pants up was definitely just a dream

* The hospital in your area is saying that their patient today broke the 'high tide' record on their colonoscopy hose, congrats

* Is it true you have booked in again on Friday and three more days next week?
and so on

Did they give you a photo that they took. They did when I had mine done a few years back. It kinda looked like the Dr Who vortex

Very smart. Legs must have been feeling weird.

that's EXACTLY what i look like inside.

 

[PG29 red0 Jr]

my condolences bro, get it done sooner rather than later

Yea, I want to get it done before I turn 40. The biggest challenge is that I haven't been to the doctor since I was 18, so I don't even know where to start.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

as of yesterday, it was 10 whole days without an upset stomach. so whatever bacteria fucked me up had run its course snd my body finally healed from being completely stripped of any good bacteria.

I started the year at 250lbs and as of yesterday morning, weighed 193.8lbs. the first 35lbs lost was from keto, the rest was from the results of this bacterial infection

Holy shit, you lost tons of weight. Good for you.

BIT OF ADVICE:

If you do not do well with drugs like pain pills, sedation etc, ask for anti-nausea meds. I felt fine, got home and when the drugs wore off I felt like I was detoxing from Heroin. Take the worst hangover and throw in sea sea sickness and food poisoning. 4 hours of the worst hell I have ever felt. Then I got the cold sweats and felt fine. NEVER again.

thanks bud, want to keep it off now. I feel good aub 200lbs though I'm lifting again so will see an increase a bit.

many insurances cover the cost of preventative care. search for a colon and rectal doc in your network, make a call for consult and then bobs your uncle

 

[Prefect]

I think I am willing to die from anything that is cured or prevented by shoving a camera up my ass.

I've had a pretty good run.

DYING FROM ASS CANCER. YOUR ASS CANNOT ESCAPE VIOLATIONS.
