Roto-rooter that the name.... By the time I am 50 we will just swallow a pill and we'll have a complete medical history! And...just thinking about that - that's only 21 years away!

Chef Jim Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I turn 50 in six months. My wife has had two colonoscopies and said the drugs are great. So I've got that to look for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL...I'm 51 and have two colonoscopies. Yeah, with the drugs they gave me, they could have driven a bus through my colon and I wouldn't have cared!

PromoTheRobot Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 The worst thing about a colonoscopy is not the roto-rooter job but the gallon of white crap you have to drink the night before. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad had a colonoscopy a couple years ago and the drugs (Demoral I think it's called) made him stop breathing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Yeah, with the drugs they gave me, they could have driven a bus through my colon and I wouldn't have cared! My guess is that once the drugs wear off you might notice if they did I've only got a few years before I get to experience this joy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve O Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 The worst thing about a colonoscopy is not the roto-rooter job but the gallon of white crap you have to drink the night before. PTR The predecessor of the colonoscopy was the Barium xray. You didn't drink the white crap the night before, you took 4 tblsp of castor oil. Talk about disgusting, would rather have 4 gallons of the white crap then 4 tblsp of castor oil. As for the xray itself, most pain I've ever been in (and I had Eric Woods compound fracture injury in 76). That was enough to get me to change a meat and potatoes based diet to a fruit and vegetable based diet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
