Only they give them to you after you drink the wretched stuff. Amy, why can't they just put it directly through an IV line instead of making us drink the horrid stuff. There has got to be a better prep they could come up with. I can't hack it. The green bottle stuff and Fleet phosphate either.

I had a colonoscopy and the gallon of stuff to drink tasted horrible, but it did the trick. Luckily I had a TV close by the bathroom so I didn't miss the fights that were on the night I had to drink it. I had to drink it through a straw so I wouldn't taste it, didn't really help. They need beer flavored stuff to drink.

I had the colonoscopy and an endocscopy done at the same time. I was put under and didn't need any drugs after the procedure. It wasn't as bad as having to see Dr. Jellyfinger for a prostate exam. At least I was asleep for the colonoscopy and endoscopy.

A friend at work needed a colonoscopy and the problem it found was a sesame seed that was stuck and caused the problems he was having.

Why the heck did I just read this entire thread??????

*shivers* I experienced the dreaded Dr. Jellyfinger once, and it was for the Naval Academy. I had to get a full physical and that is something I will never forget. So young..... And the doctor wasn't even good looking. I had only one really good looking doc to check for female issues, and the other 2 were butt ugly.

What I don't get is why do women have to get checked by Dr. Jellyfinger? Is it to check for hemorroids?

Because you wanted to hear about Buzzard's friend and his colon version of "The Princess and the Pea", but instead of a pea it was a sesame seed. Oh, and don't forget Dr. Jellyfinger...

"18 holes a day..."

I just know that tune is going to be in my head for the rest of the day now.

Should we suggest this one for Boomer for karaoke night?

I've known a lot of people who've done it, but I don't think I can stay away from food that long. I'd rather to the quick flush.
