Social My 1st Colonoscopy

[subtlySteve]

I'm 46 years old and had my first colonoscopy with zero pain medication or anesthesia.

The doctor found and removed 3 small polyps the largest being 5mm (just over 3/16 inch) which fortunately puts me right in the relatively low risk for colon cancer area.

They will be sent to a lab for testing, however, my doctor said that since they had no reason to be concerned about them they aren't a priority and they will receive the results in approximately 2 months and then inform me of them by mail.

I cannot tell you how relieved I was because I was a bit nervous if I am to be completely honest. I have been having some GI issues recently hence the reason for the coloncopy in the first place.

So I'm feeling grateful.

The pain level on a scale from 1-10 (1 being none at all and 10 being excruciating) was (for me) around a 2 and sometimes a 3 depending.

So not bad at all.

The most painful part was at the very beginning when she used her finger first to examine my butthole, she is a fantastic doctor but she did not fuck around zipping a finger right up main street. LMAO

The procedure took approximately a half hour from start to finish.

Watching the monitor and seeing the inside of my colon as they explored it in real time was wild!

I'm very happy that I got it done and I would like to remind all the Sherbro's and Sherbroette's that if you're 45 years of age or older, schedule a colonoscopy.

Yeah, it can be uncomfortable, and scary, but it could save your life and that's worth it.

I read somewhere that having a colonoscopy simply because you hit a certain age is no longer necessary. And I chose to believe that article and never consider any contrary evidence.

If my doctor wants this butthole he'll have to take it by force!

Did it as few years ago.,
Also zero pain medication or anesthesia.
I showed signs that pointed to cancer.
They removed some polyps so all good.

The worst part was the laxative that shit was nasty.
Was like drinking cooking oil, and it tasted like rotten sea water.

So requesting a second opinion with a bigger camera is still possible ?

Great to see that it worked out in your favor!

I had Plenvu split dose.

The first dose the evening before wasn't fantastic, (Mango swamp water.) but tolerable. I drank it as directed alternating between it and another clear liquid (coconut water) for 45 minutes.

The morning dose was much more palatable for me (fruit punch) and cleansed me out better than the afternoon one did.

Fortunately no nausea.

I just turned 40 and getting ready for every single checkup known to man.

Finger in my prostate definitely looms

Well, it's usually easier when it's already stretched out and loose from years of abuse. I guess man loving does have its upsides.

Good work on staying healthy tho sherbro.

I got laxabon
It was a powder I had to mix with a L of water and drink.
I think I had to drink like 5-6L of that shit for 24H
The taste was horrible.

It was worse than the procedure

I’m gonna have to schedule one soon-ish, I’m about to turn 46 myself. Although there’s no way in hell I’m doing it without pain meds or
anasthesia— if someone wants get in my ass they’re going to need to buy me dinner first plus give me a bunch of drugs.

 

[PG29 red0 Jr]

I need to get one done when I turn 40 at the latest. My mom passed away from colon cancer at age 55.

 

[nonoob]

Seriously, have had 3, people (me too) are SO scared before.
Worst part is drinking the liquid / powder mix (about 3 quarts).

Be adequately prepared after drinking for plenty of sit-down time.

Having a tooth pulled hurts, the pain from above is non-existent.

Getting a colonoscopy is still the gold standard for colon cancer screening, however if you are deemed low risk some physicians/medical centers will do just a FIT/DNA stool test. If positive you would then proceed to get a colonoscopy done.

Yeah I should have taken the advice and used one of the Gatorades -- using straight water just made it thick ass terrible water and was indeed the worst part of the entire experience.

Yeah water made it thick and oily.
I almost cried when it was time to drink it.
and it was like a liter at the time.
I think I had to drink like 5 times.

It was horrid.

then the colonoscopy was quite easy,

If I ever have to do it again I sure as hell will ask for another laxative and google how to make it go down easier.

 

[DarthChen731]

I forget the name of the procedure but anyone get the version where you just have to stop eating the night before and they give you the option to stay awake throughout?

I was dying laughing watching the TV screen as the camera came for, and into, my butt. Once it was done I went back to work and told everyone about it.
