Hi Julz,
I had a Colonoscopy 4 years ago. Before the procedure (not sure on time scale) you can't eat certain things. I think starchy stuff. Then you have to take bowel prep. This is not fun AT ALL but it is bearable. Whilst taking this you can drink water. No milk in drinks. If you've followed the eating guidlines then the bowel prep should be as ok as you can expect.
For the actual procedure I was sedated. I was awake but completely high lol. I remember watching the screen as the doctor directed the camera around (hahaha) and I asked the Doctor (in my massively out of it state) how he knew where to go in there?
I don't know how long it took, I think I dozed off. It doesn't hurt but you can feel it. It's uncomfortable I guess.
After it's over you might feel a tad battered in the area. But definitely no worse than if you went on a long ride in a thong (yes, I've done that and can promise you, it's no where near that bad!) You'll feel a bit out of it after the sedation, have a nice sleep.
I hope it's all ok hun x

I hope he actually finds something... really not into having problems then being told everything is normal... Sedation with me, its just knocks me out totally.. I shan't be watching my insides being invaded by a medical tube complete with camera and a little light lol.. umm I was told to eat less fibre for the prep as it will make it less ..er... yeah well.. have you seen this? it's really quite funny.. www.dla-associates.co.uk/crud/Picolax.pdf
