fukk…this might be a sign to get it done…had a physical last month (everything was fine) but my doctor recommended I get one due to my age as they now suggest getting it done starting at 45 (used to be 50 I guess)…I been postponing setting up the appointment tho…maybe it’s my guilt over the procrastination but it seems like I’m constantly hearing about folks talking about colonoscopies now

I had one back in July. I almost got through the entire jug of prep before I threw the second half up 🥺 . I was so afraid my system wouldn’t be clear. That shyt is disgusting. I’m so grateful for good health but never again.
I just settled with citrate and laxative pills. That shyt they give you is demonically disgusting. Like your body goes through spasms due to how gross that shyt is.

I heard the prep is the worst…what does it taste like?

Nah .
Man I love colonoscopies. Look forward to them . Have had so many because certain health issues and because of polyps they’ve found .So I have them like every two years or so . Getting to put to sleep one of the best feelings in the world for me

I had mine last week and had these...

It tasted fine to me, like a sweet clear syrup.
The prep was ok, I'm used to fasting periodically so I just drank water and some apple juice for over 30+ plus hours.
After taking those prep drinks, your ass will basically be a fountain if you prepped correctly.
You'll have the bubble guts for a day or two but you'll be fine.

After seeing some young brehs get it and fairly young cats like Chadwick and Combat Jack pass away from cancer, we have to start getting checked earlier.

To the brehs that never had one done, a colonoscopy is not bad at all….

The procedure itself is easy work. 30 minutes tops.

The prep is annoying because you cant eat and you take a shyt ton (dont even ask me how) of laxatives and can only drink clear liquids.

For me the worst part was waking up in the middle in the night with the runs :sadcam:

This shyt is the WOAT:mjcry:. A whole day of just drinking clear drinks, no solid foods, and taking laxatives to the point my ass feels like a rugged tree branch.

For my Crohns/IBS brehs...how yall cope with this test of patience? My ritual is usually playing video games or watching wrestling just to not focus on the feeling of wanting to eat a leaf or two :francis:
Chug that nasty drink and get it over with. I had one last year, due for another one. I have Crohns

Idk about colonoscopy but I’ve been suffering with haemorrhoids for 8 years now. I don’t even remember what it feels like to take a shyt and go about your day like normal. I have to do it at night so I can lay down afterwards for up to an hour or two otherwise my ass will be burning.

There are times when you feel better for a couple of months but it returns coz of constipation and straining during bowel movement.
