I had one years ago. Clean as a whistle. At my age, I am not getting another. Cost/benefit thing is just not there.

Get some of that Desitin type diaper rash ointment and pre-grease your butt before the purge. It will help keep it less like a opossum's ass in poke berry season.

I agree with those that believe this a very minor procedure, everybody should be getting them along with, in the case of men a psa Far to many are dying , far to young of completely preventable deaths if detected soon enough.

At 50, back in 2000, I had my first colonoscopy simply because I had read that one should start at age 50. Doc found 1 polyp, but it was the type that becomes cancerous. When I told him my mom died of colon cancer he told me I was in the high risk group and needed the scope every 3 years, which I’ve followed. Last year he told me I could now start having the scope at 5 year intervals. The prep is nothing compared to colon cancer. Be smart and get it done.

Nobody's right if everybody's wrong. Getting into reloading to save money is like getting married for free sex.

Stay awake Two reasons. Nothing to it. Watch it on TV live.
Secondly, Anesthesiologist are incredibly expensive to put you under. And they can kill you. They killed me.
Sux waking up. Room in panic, jumper cables on your chest.
When it can easily be avoided.
America is (supposed to be) a Republic, NOT a democracy. Learn the difference, help end the lie. Fear a government that fears your guns.
