Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire colonoscopy in 2 weeks

colonoscopy anyone? this is my 4th time.

Start preparing now.

Good luck taking shits, thanks for bringing it to everyone's attention. Pears sent for the shitting and probing.

Before my first one I was told that versed would act as a truth serum and I'd be talkative. I wasn't too worried until the anesthesiologist came in, an attractive woman in a lab coat with nice legs showing. I thought "oh, shît. I'm going to say something". My last memory was me thinking to myself "don't f'n say anything. don't f'n say anything...". When I woke I looked around to see if the cops were there.

I have always said if a colonoscopy prep was part of any sentence for commiting a crime the crime rate would plumet.

Wanted: old man attention

Every 5 years starting at age 55.

Sounds good for the doctor

Two words….Baby Wipes.😁

Yuck, I much prefer the prostate threads.

One word. Bidet.

it takes 5 years for polyps to become cancerous , i am doing it in 3-4 years intervals and everytime the polyps were becoming cancerous.

dont get fooled by Cologuard , you need to do it before.

I've had two they've taken out spots and polyps each time so I have to do it every 3 years.
honestly it's no big deal.

the bigger deal is like I watched my 46 year old brother-in-law die of colon cancer. this is something you do not want to happen to you or do you don't even want to see somebody suffer from this. they discovered his at the stage 4 where it already moved to other organs.. watching somebody that would remind you a lot of Michael McConaughey in about 8 months turn into an unrecognizable skeleton is pretty bad..

Don’t use a white towel after ur shower

Crap in a box and mail it off. Sure

Be a man, get an iV, strip down to your naked ass and take your lumps with a gold standard procedure

The new guidelines are to start at 45 and every 5 years after that. They are finding pre-cancerous polyps in younger people these days and want to start prevention earlier- and the gastroenterologists want to take and extra vacation each year....

I recommend it to everyone I know. Painless for the most part and the prep is a relatively minor inconvenience compared to the alternative.

Wear your Bugs Bunny or Snoopy tighties for extra credit.

Mine was performed by a doctor I knew fairly well and I show up and met his very pretty nurse/assistant. When we met to go over the results he was professional and everything was fine. At the end of my appointment he said I should ask out the nurse and that I was killing it and she was rather smitten. I was too embarrassed to go forward plus I knew him well enough to know it may not had gone as he said and I was being setup.

Due to direct experience, I see this as very good advice. Had our daughter had her first such exam at 45, rather than at 50, she very well might still be with us.

I get one every 4 years . No big deal !
