wow, I have a colonoscopy on Thursday morning, and I know that there is a good chance that it will go well, but I can't help but be anxious and anguished despite this, lol 😁

Have you had a colonoscopy in the past?
How did it go?

Stockylove:
The procedure, I hope I don't wake up during the operation, because I know it's happened to people. I'm also worried about the outcome, I hope I don't have colon cancer.

You'll be fine. The worst thing about a colonoscopy is the prep. If you aren't worried about the prep, then there is no need to worry about the procedure.

It is highly unlikely you will wake up during the procedure. Such things are very rare since the anesthesiologist have been doing this for years. People that wake up during procedures tend to be more resistant to the medication. And even then that's rare because the anesthesiologist accounts for this.

That said, I hope you get a clean bill of health.

Wow, you won’t believe this — but I’m having one Thursday morning as well. What are the chances, right? Just checking a box due to my age range now. I don’t expect any problems, but it’s gonna be rough not eating for two whole days!

So 1) you’re not having a colonoscopy for fun. You’re getting one because you’re elevated risk based on any number of factors. And if the doctor grabs something to biopsy, you want to know about it now not later and definitely not sweep it under the rug. The sooner you know about little things the easier it is to keep them from turning into bigger things.

2) anesthesiologists are pros. Don’t worry about waking up during it. If you do, there’s someone right there to adjust your dose. And you wake up from these things feeling like you just had the best sleep of your life. If the prep wasn’t an ordeal, I’d go get one every month!

3) the prep kinda sucks, unless you really love sitting on the toilet, I guess. But when it’s done you won’t have to do it again for years.

I laughed when I read your comment. What time do you have an appointment, for me it's 9am (French time) (it's better for me because the sooner I have this colonoscopy, the sooner it will be sorted out and I will be stressed for a shorter period of time, and I will be fasting for a shorter time)

But don't you have to eat for 2 days?😯
I just have to fast on Thursday morning, after the famous "preparation" the day before.
