Colonoscopy

[neonspectraltoast]

I probably will never get one.

[neonspectraltoast]

I'm just not scared enough.

[neonspectraltoast]

I really don't think I'll get colon cancer, either.

My mom had polyps, though, and she was like, "You can laugh now, but it's genetic."

[SusieDerkins]

I am 52 and I am not getting one either. If it is not broke, don’t fix it

Who knows what they're putting in your butt.

[SusieDerkins]

Supposedly a camera. I could go all conspiracy and say an rfid chip

[neonspectraltoast]

It's their little gestures I don't want up there.

[OP1]

I think they're being recommended now for people 45 and older.

[Lynnbrown]

That makes sense why when I go to my doctor nobody ever tries to talk me into one. I AM NOT COMPLAINING. lol

[neonspectraltoast]

I don't know who I'd trust to stick something up there. I'm afraid there would be some subtle suggestion that might enter my subconscious.

[OP1]

Maybe you'd like having a camera up your bum

[neonspectraltoast]

Nope.

just eat beetroot instead

It's an operation to clear your colons after a blockage.

There are some funny videos around on youtube that actually catch the person who has had the operation dropping their guts loudly.

It's a requirement to help with your farting.

I was in total agreement, I’m not getting the procedure, that was until a former coworker who also said No Way, told me last spring he was having some problems when he finally went to the doctor it was to late.
We attended his funeral a few months ago.
The prep before the procedure is far worse than the actual procedure.

yeah i'd rather keep an eye on these things and not die, for sure.

stuff like this doesn't really bother me anyway. maybe it's being a woman and having cervical screening every few years anyway. sure some things are kind of embarrassing but doctors do this all the time, and discomfort is temporary.
