[QUOTE=wonkadonk;20034140]I find the concept of colonoscopies to be disturbing and uncomfortable[/QUOTE] Where would you get that idea from? It's not like they're shoving a camera up your anus or anything....
[QUOTE=BoBt3hBuNnY;20034183]Where would you get that idea from? It's not like they're shoving a camera up your anus or anything....[/QUOTE] That's exactly what they do. But it's a small tube-camera, so it fits.
I have a friend who was a GI tech. He told me once that they give a drug, Versed I think, that wipes your memory. So you are awake, and can therefore respond to the doctor's instructions and so on, but when the drugs wear off you won't remember it. The idea is that however uncomfortable it may be while it's happening, you won't have any traumatic "Take that out of my ass! Oh wait, it's starting to feel sort of good now..." memories. Not everyone gets those drugs though, I'm sure different doctors use different procedures.
i heard if you're gay it's quite enjoyable
how old are you?
The camera is too small, I prefere a dildo.

I had to have a camera in my dick about a month ago, while I was concious too.. I still have nightmares to this day. Although that was over quick at least.
[QUOTE=Octer;20039417]I had to have a camera in my dick about a month ago[/QUOTE] Dude. Why?
i hope he does a quite anal job good luck
[QUOTE=Butthurter;20039632]I'd like to know each and every single detail regarding this. Were you awake? If so, please explain the joy.[/QUOTE] I just lay down and they put some kind of gel on it as a local aesthetic, but it still hurt like hell when they push it down into the bladder. It felt like it was scratching as it went down. They filled my bladder with some water and then the bitch asked if I wanted to look at the screen. WHAT THE FUCK NO THANKS I'VE GOT OTHER THINGS ON MY MIND. Then she pulled it out, which also hurt like hell. The whole thing only took about 1 or 2 minutes at least. I can just remember looking up and seeing the doctor drilling something into my dick, it was like some kind of horror film.
[B]Update: [/B] Thought i might describe what happened in case anyone else has to go through this: Firstly, the nurse called me in and we went to a "prep" room of sorts. I was asked to sign a form, then gave back my 2 remaining sachets of laxative (I had no wish whatsoever of keeping them). The nurse then told me to put on a pair of big blue shorts with a hole that can only be described as being "for easy access". The nurse left while i changed thankfully. After that i paced around this room, feeling a bit like on death row. In the other room i could hear metal scraping, as if they were moving some heavy machinery. Eventually I get called in, and told to lie down on a stretcher. The doc comes in, and asks if i want to be sedated. I say no, but ask how much it will hurt anyway. He says he doesn't know, but that 75% of men he sees have the sedation (I wonder why). Then they inserted the camera, which was unpleasant, but not too terrible. The screen was positioned so that I could see aswell. The image also looked really good quality, and seemed like HD. At this point, the camera keeps going, and to get through they inflate your colon with air. This is pretty painful, but you can tolerate it. Once this is done however, you don't really feel too much, except that something is moving in your guts. The doc went all the way to my appendix, and said that it looked clear. Since the pain was past, i was kinda interested, so i asked questions about what was what etc. The doc was pretty nice, and answered all of them, I even got to see my small intestine, and appendix. All that remained was to take biopsies of the colon. For those that don't know, this is small samples of tissue. The process freaked me out a bit, as suddenly these crocodile clips appear in the camera, grab a chunk of my colon, and pull it out, leaving a bloody mark. I was reassured however, that these heal super fast as the colon gets damaged a lot anyway normally. Once that was done, the camera was removed, and i got dressed. I got a print out of the doctors report, then sent on my way feeling pretty OK. The only problem after was really bad gas, but that went away quickly. I hadn't eaten for 28h, so i ran to a kebab shop cos i was so hungry. So overall, it's really not as bad as i thought it would be. Nor is it really demeaning. Despite it being uncomfortable, it's not every day you get to see your insides in HD either. AFAIK when you turn 50 you are supposed to get one anyway, so it's bound to happen someday.
I had one and it hurt like a motherfucker. Worst pain in my life. I had to get a shitload of anaesthetics. [editline]06:07PM[/editline] The airinflation is the worst. Also drinking that stuff that cleans your stomach. Tip: it tastes horrible. Cool it in the freezer, goes down like water after that.
