Colonoscopy
Well I just got home from my colonoscopy and to tell the truth it was not bad at all. The facility was brand new and state-of-the-art and the nurses were fun and friendly. We got there about an hour late because the roads were so slippery from the night before but that wasn't a problem. Soon after I arrived, I went into this room where I took off my clothes, put on some garments and they put an IV in my right hand. I signed the consent forms and soon I was rolled to the procedure room that had all of these cool gadgets in it. I was hooked up to an EKG and then they started to pump me full of cool meds. I felt really relaxed and spacey, but I never fell asleep. I think I talked to the doctors too but I had no idea what I was saying. I remember watching the colonoscopy on the TV, it was neat. Not really gross at all. The whole procedure took about 20 min. Then I was wheeled back to my little room and relaxed for a while and then Amber came in and we talked for a little bit (I think) I don't remember much. The doctor can in and gave us the results which were good so no worries. After a little while I put my clothes on and then we were off. Time to just chill for the rest of the day, read a bit, take a nap. I recommend colonoscopies for anyone!
