[QUOTE="Uncle Meat, post: 3154199, member: 16"] Very timely! Had my first yesterday. I'm 59. Actually had both ends done at once. Intake and exhaust. Like you, I put it off too long. But it's for your family as well. They probably like having you around. I have a wife and 4 kids. The early signs of colon cancer are no signs. Think about that. When you think something's up, it's too late. Hard to put a price on peace of mind. Really, the day before is the worst part. Not eating, drinking that industrial strength laxative and a lake, twice of water. Yep, you'll have the scours but it's part of the plan. Really not that bad. Man, did I dread the drive to the hospital the day of. My mind ran wild with visions of rods and hoses, KY and my nut sack hanging with my butt in the air. Assistants laughing and pointing. I mean, everything about this was going to be terrible. I was wrong. It went like this: Check in. Clothes off, gown on. Lay on gurney. IV in my hand (only discomfort I ever felt) Roll into room with monitors and stuff. Cuff and wires attached. Lay on side. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz 3 seconds later I wake up as they're rolling me out. Get dressed. Chat with doc over my wavey pink cave pics. He said "see you in 10 yrs". Absolutely nothing to it. No evidence of misconduct below. Your worst enemy is your mind. [/QUOTE]
