so had my colonoscopy yesterday. They only gave me a half dose of sedative due to the asthma and breathing problems, but it was fine. I’d say uncomfortable with occasional dull pain and easy to cope with. They found a large polyp, which I could see on the big screen, which they removed and sent off for a biopsy-results in about three weeks. If there is a bad result, then I’ll have to have a laparoscopy and there is a chance that I may have to have another colonoscopy as they said there was still a lot of mucus in there so was quite murky and difficult to see everything. I’m very glad that’s over!

It sounds as if you did really well and let’s hope the results are good. Thinking of you. Xxx
Good job out of the way. My con said I think we will try without pain relief 🙄 WE. I did say he would have to be kind and gentle in that case and he was. I sso hope for the best outcome for you. It’s a troublesome business. Good luck. Xxx
I had mine 7 years ago now. I had a full colon removal and now wear a colostomy bag. I hope everything goes well for you.
The colostomy bag is not so pesky as it sounds but don`t worry about that you may never need one.
❤️
As I said, It is not as bad as you may think. There are some drawbacks, being out and about without a mobile loo or thick bushland when you need to empty the bag IS a drawback but hey, we all have problems of some sort.Hope you get through all the exams and proddings with a good result.
Well at least that's done. Hope the results are positive and nothing to worry about. Xx
Glad it's over. I hope that's the end of it and that the polyp proves harmless. xxx
Oh thank you Alberta. Me too! Xx
I had 5 taken out- all harmless. Hope yours is too.🤞🤞🤞
Wow! Sounds like a record. Don’t want to beat it though 🤣🤣 xx
They went looking for 1 with me and found 7 the only worrying thing was my BP went to 200.The nurses in the recovery room went looking for the Con but he had gone to lunch, and all I got was a soggy sandwich and a very weak tea.
Sounds like you did well Reader100 and fingers crossed for your results x
I hope you get good results shortly ❤️You’ve made my bum cheeks clench 💐
I had endoscopy and a colonoscopy st szme time but with out sediyive as i dicnt have anyone yo tske me jome znd keep an eye on me.Never again i was gagging every yime they pushed hhe czmera down my throat ended up being sick and a whoops moment as well.
Then the other just ad bad i thought he was trying yo push hhe camera through my bowel it hurt that much.
New gastroenterologist reg wanted me to have another bug i refused after last one and he was arguing with me that i have to hsve on but i stood my ground and reported him to pals for his unproffessionalism and bulling me .
So i refused to see him so they make sure i saw the consultsnt after that overwise i wouldve walk out.
Hello Reader. The trouble with having poorly lungs is not being able to have much sedation and certainly not being able to be under general anesthesia. I can commiserate with the colonoscopy. Not the easiest test. I hope the polyp is benign. Best wishes to you. xx 😊👋
