Had another colonoscopy today.
Made sure that Jedi was not in the vicinity before they started the sedation.
I know people who died needlessly because they refused to, or unnecessarily delayed, a colonoscopy. No need for that. The preparation is far worse than the procedure. I have a history of having polyps so I get to go back every 3 years to have them cut out before they become cancerous. Had more cut out today. Doctor said he didn't think they looked abnormal, so that is good news.
Seriously, if you are 50 or older and have been avoiding this you may be welcoming a painful death by delaying.
Just make sure Jedi & Ericpwp are [strike]is[/strike] out of state when you show up at the hospital
Never had one, but I was in the room for one once.
Unless it's an immediate issue, isn't it age 50 as a standard?
FIXID IT

I have an appointment with Dr Mirro on the 31st so he can order my colonoscopy. Mine are not routine screenings because I also get an upper scope done because of history of severe GERD.
I also have a diagnostic mammogram and ultrasound on the 27th. I have something that is hopefully nothing. PSA part II--have your loved ones get their mammograms.
