Seven (more) words that fill me with terror

Shameless rip off from [mention]toomanycats[/mention], but everyone needs influences, right?

"A reminder of your colonoscopy tomorrow morning"

For those that have been there and done that, you know. And now I do too - big 50 was earlier this year and heading in tomorrow. Back in a minute....

In my experience, after having to force feed yourself all that Go-Lytely swill, the procedure itself is a cakewalk.

[toomanycats]

Sorry, couldn't help myself.

I was lucky enough to have three the first half of the year. 2020 definitely has not been a treat. Fortunately the results were good (sigh of relief) & I got my first tattoo out of the deal!

To be honest, the prep & procedure is not that bad.

I hear the flatulence afterward makes up for it all.

[nomadh]

I do the poop smear test instead. Not as good but I do it yearly. The trade off is the 2 people I know that had serious damage done doing that stupid test.

[BatUtilityBelt]

I woke up during mine - never going to have another.

I've had it done twice. In 1998 & 2018, they never found anything either time.
I won't do it again unless I do not have a say in the matter.
