I had my first colonoscopy this year. I have to go back again in five years. The procedure I didn't mind so much, but the prep was horrible. I guess I get pretty wacky when I am coming off anesthesia. According to my wife anyway. Best of luck to you moving forward!

I agree - the prep is awful. I had a weird issue in that the anesthesia didn't do much to me. I was awake and fully aware the entire time and while I wouldn't describe it as painful it was uncomfortable. They are going to do my next one at the surgery center instead of the endoscopy center so a higher level of anesthesia can be used. I haven't yet had the fun of hearing that I'm entertaining coming off of anesthesia.
Oh wow, I don't think I would like that. My father in law goes to a place where they just numb him and he actually watches on the screen while they do it. That's a great big no thanks from me!
Ya. That would be a no for me too!
