Colonoscopy - Pluck that Polyp
Colonoscopy - Pluck that Polyp
There are a lot of good reasons to get a colon exam (especially if you are a male over 50). You may be wondering what happens if they find "something" - here is your answer (WARNING: video is from the Mayo clinic but may not be SFW). picked by BrownTrout 1 year ago

Oh, but they insert it "gently". That makes it all better.

That image is hilarious. Still gross, but really funny. Consider that edit up-voted.

Well the "inserting" would not be a pleasant thing but the "tug of war" they were having inside is what gave me the willies!

Hubby just had his (his mom died of colon cancer, so he's high risk).

Not as bad as he feared, good drugs mean you don't remember it so well. Only one polyp found, and removed yay. The polyps apparently are pre-cancerous bits that can turn to cancer, so removing them is a good thing.

He was fine 6 hrs later. And he got pictures! LOL, of course, only I am interested in them, they are fascinating!

before submitting to a colonoscopy I would recommend checking out a "virtual colonoscopy" also called CT colonography. No drugs, no camera up the intestine, it takes just minutes, doctor referral not necessary, costs way less, and you can resume normal activity immediately afterwards rather than recovering for an hour or more and having to be driven home to rest.
