Enjoyed the post - very funny.  I know I need to get one done.  I've never had one before, but I'm past due. 

 

@San Antonio Gal  You can tell me it's none of my business but I will say it anyway because I care.  First of all, I've had several colonoscopies and all have been fine.  It's not that bad.  Most importantly, when my son turned 50 two years ago, I begged him to get one.  He finally did and they found 2 pre-cancerous polyps which they removed.  He will go back in another year or so.  Had he not gone, God only knows what could have happened.  Please, please, please have yours done.  You will, most likely, get a good report but even if there is something, they are catching it in the early stage.  Please do not take offense.  I'm saying this because I care.  docsgirl

Thank you so much for giving me my only laugh out loud for the day.  I promised myself after my one and only colonoscopy that I would never have it done again until they come up with a better prep, I'm still waiting.  Woman LOL

Hilarious!!!  I had one done a few years ago and he's pretty much on the money about the whole experience.

I am in a bad mood this morning because I have a doctor appointment and other errands which my daughter will have to push me around in a wheelchair which we both hate.

 

However, I have had several colonoscopies, and this piece was hysterical!  I laughed out loud several times which helped my mood.  Thank you for posting!
