Behindular BS! Dave Barry is a funnnnnny duddddddde... I wanted to laugh, but my mind couldn't get passed the painful prep....

Q_ball Member Registered: 03/03/07 Posts: 201 Loc: Ozarks	This was over the top funny! Thanks Queen JJ for sharing it. I've had 4 colonoscopies & 3 endoscopies. I must admit, I'm obsessed with knowing my body from a health standpoint. Wide awake during all proceedures i found it so interesting. I actually asked that the screen be placed in Full comfortable view for my curious entertainment. WOW what a trip! My last colonoscopy was the best, it was in Living Color!!! Kinda reminded me of those sycadelic swirrelys from the 60's. LOL OK So maybe I was a little dopey? Ladies, if you've not had one do not fear them, it's really painless. And educational. _________________________ Q~Ball aka Q~Ball101

jawjaw Da Queen Registered: 07/02/03 Posts: 12025 Loc: Alabama	Same here. I've had them as well...and the prep IS the worst part. I remember when my sweet Daddy was alive and he had to "prepare" for one. They gave him some stuff to drink called "Go Lightly." Daddy said they should rename it "Go Quickly." God luv him! _________________________ Queen JJ www.queenjawjaw.com All Things Royal - 2010 and Beyond Humorist for the NABBW

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	jj, Got your sense of humor from daddy, hey. Love it. My dad was gentle, warm, and loving too. Those colon tests are easy, yes. Can't say as I'd want to be awake and watch it, though, like Qball. I was awake for the birth of my son. That was enough! No need to see what my colon looks like, thank you. Glad Qball enjoyed herself, though! LOL... _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf

Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	jabber, you are so brave. I can't believe you were awake and watching during your colonoscopy. I was totally out of it. Anyone else awake? I don't think they offer that here. _________________________ Founder Emeritus of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Dotsie, Q-ball watched the colon test. I watched the birth of my son. I don't know if they let you watch the colon test here or not but I'm not about to ask. Hopefully, I won't need another one of those things ever again. I think lots of women watch their children's birth. I heard others remark along those lines. The link jj posted, is funny. I just have an acute aversion to colonoscopies, "real scoop" or not! _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf
