    I'm glads that's over

    Just got the colonoscopy / endoscopy double play. Everything looks OK and Well worth the inconvenience. Preventive medicine at its finest.

    The anticipation is the worst part. Too bad they can't keep you on the drugs a day or two before. Maybe a day after, too; just as a reward. ;)

    The reward is knowing there isn't anything bad going on in there.

    Your absolutely right. However, a little ride on the Marrakesh Express never hurt.

    The stuff they used to give me flucked me up for the rest of the day. With the stuff they use now , a couple of hours after the procedure I'm back to normal.

    Dig that. I was kinda lucky -- my endoscopy was scheduled for the next morning. Very little time to work myself up with worry.

    Great news!

    General info: those two tests are a piece of cake. Getting them is little more than taking a refreshing nap.

    And, you get to see full color hi-res pix of your insides!

    But the colon drain-o prep is a real pain in the ass.

    Right-o. Forgot that part. Not necessary for other one.

    AND, as previously mentioned by someone, if you're getting both at the same time, make sure they don't get the two mixed-up!

    But how could one tell if they did?
