age for a colonoscopy from 50 to 45? I'm 46 now, and just found out. Am I a dead man walking, or is my doctor just a sadist?
June 30th I lose my innocence, T&Ps welcomed.

had one at 50 (2 yrs ago) and had some things removed. Colon doc said to thank my reg doc 'cause if'n I had waited much longer it could have turned into something worse.
Get to have another one in August, since they took stuff out last go around.

The procedure is no big deal, you are fast asleep.

The part that sucks is the prep. You will be shiatting liquid for a good portion of the night.

My wife had one last month.

She took her normal morning poop and then just pooped clear liquid. I was impressed. And the doc said it was the cleanest colon he's ever seen. It took me hours on the toilet to get anywhere close to clear.

He gave me kudos on my prep as well, but sounds like your wife’s was easier than mine.

Good drugs, an awesome nap followed by about 10 hours of epic farting and not having to poop for 3 days. At Francis has a crew of hotties in the operating room, so that was a plus. Would do one every week if insurance would cover it.
