I'm sorry you found it difficult to have your first Colonoscopy-- but at least now, through your personal experience, you can advocate for Colonoscopies at 50. Were all of your Polyps finally cleared out? How are you now?
I am certainly glad that your outcome was not grim-- as it could have easily been. At 25 I had my first colonoscopy (due to family history). I have a healthy colon but believe me, despite how hard it was-- I would sooner drink that disgusting Nulytly drink and scream "WWHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYY" as I drink it, than to think that I am exempt from colon diseases. I am so glad you now feel the same way and hope that others that read your story realize that it's a lot more important than we think.
Best Wishes,
Rosa
P.S. I have to admit, there were parts of your story that had me laughing. I'm going to bookmark it and read it as I sip on my drink for future Colonoscopies. I also have a friend that I know will listen to me as I pee from my behind- there is no greater gift than that. :)
