Great video! You made a a scary procedure seem tolerable. Colonoscopies save lives!

"Nothing to worry about" is not always the case. When the doctor talks to you after the colonoscopy and says you have colon cancer -- that's when you worry!

Thank you for posting this Becky! I have my first one in a few days. Trying not to get worked up as that won’t solve anything. You are so sweet and calm….. I will be watching you again in a couple of days 😎

Hi, I am glad to have found this video because I have got to go for a colonoscopy in the next couple of weeks under the two week wait so I am very nervous… I have seen other videos and have made myself totally scared but I am glad you had a good experience and fingers crossed I will too xx

Good video, certainly isn't fun but not as bad as people make it out to be. I can't work out if the Picolax or Movicol prep are worse. The one advantage of the second is that its then litres of fluid so doesn't burn much but its a lot of sickly fluid.

No it isn’t too bad at all! I just drunk loooadds of water with Picolax so didn’t find it too bad

from what I've read/seen and what my doctor told me, it's common to be asleep for the procedure no matter what age. if you had it already, how did it go?

I'm in the US and have Crohns as well. So in the uk you guess don't get put to sleep completely. I'd be so nervous and I've had many colonoscopies

Yes that sucks. No idea why they don't put you to sleep here. They say they need you to turn over mid procedure. So I guess they don't turn you over in the US. Puts me off from going.
