Colonoscopy

you will be sedated so it's not too bad. i've never had one but i worked for a company that made the cameras. we used to have to watch procedures all the time. people would fart a lot during them because they pump air into you to expand the colon

Also ASK TO SEE THE SCOPE THEY ARE USING ON YOU! someplaces don't clean them very well. it might have CACA ON IT

Where do I begin... I was diagnosed with IBS about a year ago because that was the first time I really started to feel the abdominal pains. I didn't ever know what was wrong with me. I now cannot have a BM without taking a medication. I have gained about 8 pounds in the last 5 months all in my abdominal area due to bloating, and I feel so self-conscious. I am miserable. I did get a colonoscopy, and I was diagnosed with a ‘beautiful colon.’ Nothing is helping me. I'm at my wit’s end here. I am looking for any help. I want to be myself again. I am sleepy all of the time, my face is breaking out, and my stomach hurts constantly. It has personally and professionally affected my life.

i think you should get one because it cleans the poop out of you!

That's a long six hours though.

I had one done last June. Completely painless.

Rrobyn asked me once to post pictures, but I've hesitated.

uh, yeah. keep hesitating

did you feel ten pounds lighter? (people always say that. maybe they actually are ten pounds lighter?)

Yes. After that half day of sitting on the toilet is over, it does feel a little rejuvenating.

that sounds awesome

i think i'll get one right now!

liveblog it, deej!

how do i get colonoscopy? is it safe? legal? free cheap and easy? safe and anonymous? how do i clean my intestines? how do i rid myself of feces? cheap colonoscopy. unlicensed colon doctor. colon doctor for cheap

Another way of colon cleansing is colonic irrigation. I'm a huge believer in this procedure, and it is far more effective than enemas. However, colonics are not thorough, as they only remove the softer, surface plaque which becomes loosened during the colonic procedure. Also, colonics can be very expensive and many are required to be effective, even for this superficial clean out. What would be far better is colonics combined with a good colon cleanse program.

cheap colonics best value

i really dont understand anything that heave ho does ever.

heave ho doesn't make sense.

I can't remember what the name of the box of drugs I took on the half-day. I do remember that it came in flavors of lemon-lime, cherry, and orange. You have to drink a whole glass of this stuff every ten minutes, and it's like a half-gallon of the stuff.

gross.

The process is not appealing.

I keep hearing Supertramp's "Stereotomy" everytime I see this thread.

i'm going to get a virtual colonoscopy instead.

colonoscopies suck :(

better or worse than uffie?

colonoscopies suck...the shit outta you.

Got another one on Thursday.

Had meatloaf, yellow rice, black-eyed peas, and a roll the size of two fists with honey today since it'll be black coffee and jello for two days.

But really. You shouldn't be afraid of a colonoscopy. The most uncomfortable part is when they put the IV in you.

the most uncomfortable part for me was afterwards but I had a terrible abscess so

also: the prep

Well, yeah, the prep. But that's what Fantasy Football Preview '08 is for.

you guys can start a new thread on ILE, you know.

eek

Talking about colonoscopies is more about the pwning than the loving, gg.

this board is about the rating

Ha, this is what happens when you look at everything through Site New Answers.

It's all one big rosy combination to me.

Had one this morning; nuthin' do it.

I have no memory of making my last post.

is memory loss a side effect

It is from the anesthesia.

That's why I can't stress enough how easy these things are. You'll never know it happened.

One moment I'm telling the doctor when my last CAT was done and the next second, I'm drinking a Sprite in the recovery room.

Anyway. By request:

Everything looked okay this time except the doctor is checking out that growth next to one of the staples that sewed me shut last time. It's likely a build-up of scar tissue, but you know. Keep your fingers crossed.

Dang ol thang looks like a pop-tab or somthin'...

There's your Fantastic Voyage for the night.

u have a rly nice colon PP

unfortunately

so hey, this moviprep stuff is not a lot of fun

In recovery room. For the record, not so very bad this procedure. I've had worse dates.

poop bowel

Getting my first on Tuesday. Tonight the fun starts. I don't like the idea of messing up my system intentionally when it works just fine day to day, but better than letting cancer go undetected, I guess.

I recommend watching A Bande Apart in between trips to the bathroom

Turned out fine. I had been so prepared for the prep to be awful, that it actually wasn't so bad (drinking it through a straw probably helped). Surreal how the whole process works.

I remember sitting in the presurgery waiting room with all the other sad sacks who were getting one, all sitting in our paper gowns looking miserable, and one guy quietly piped up "I'm so hungry" and everyone just nodded sadly.

If you need to go in without anaesthetic they encourage you to fart otherwise you get a build up of air or something around the camera.

I work in a hospital and had to pick up a coworker after hers last week. She was giddy from the sedation and said she felt like she had the best two hour nap and tea at a spa.

I have to have colonoscopies basically every year now thanks to my active IBD. Chugging the prep solution is still the hardest part. I definitely don't feel refreshed after waking up from anesthesia, lol

now that's a spin i can get (into my) behind

Yeah I was pretty elated when I woke up from mine. Combination of the relief of “it’s over” and the drugz. On the way home I was very talkative

I got one at 50; now that I'm 60, I've got my 2nd one scheduled for next month. It's kind of a minor family tradition now to go out for a big breakfast afterwards, looking forward to that.

I felt nice and mellow afterwards, not drugged but just fewer thoughts and anxieties than usual.

It was weird not to be hungry when not eating for two days; it made me aware of when I eat out of habit or whatever else. The prep solution had electrolytes, and I also had clear coconut water and unflavored Bubly (also with electrolytes), and that seemed to keep me sated.

This was only my third procedure ever (other two were an appendix removal and a detached retina), and I was aware again how hospitality is even more of a concept in hospitals than hotels. Everyone was so calming. As with the other two procedures, it was good to know that they're doing many of these each week and that there's no mystery and not much variety.

yeah i always feel remarkably safe waiting in the pre-op room with an IV drip and three bajillion monitors stickered to my body. it's a real blessing. warm blankets too.

also the plastic-y saline smell from the IV is burned into my mind. it's weird because it's a smell experienced from traces of chemicals in the bloodstream and not from an external source.

It's that time again, dreading the prep drinking and not eating, but looking forward to the post-procedure meal.
