Oh The Joys Of A Colonosopy!!!

Last week Ralph had to have his first Colonosopy! Well ive never know anyone so worried in my life. lol. Maybe its cause i work at a medical office and its seen as routine there or maybe its because ive already had three of them i dont know but anyway i though it was pretty funny, lol but i tried to be nice, really!!! I had him totally terrified for the prep tho as he has witnessed what it does to me with the three i have had. I started having them in my thirtys as we have a family history of it and i was having problems at that time. I was lucky i had my first one done at that time, had i not i would have had colon cancer by now. But anyway i react very badly to the prep. With my first two i threw up really bad within 30 mins of starting the prep (as well as what its suppose to do) and i gag the whole time im drinking it. It makes me so ill that im exhausted by the time i arrive for the colonosopy the next day. So the last time three years ago they gave me pills, well they did the same thing, gagging and throwing up within the first 30 mins. But the good thing is the colonosopy goes by easy and i sleep though the whole thing. So for me the prep is the devil and the colonosopy is a piece of cake. So this was what Ralph was used to seeing. I kinda knew from work that my reaction to the prep was not the norm and kinda told Ralph that hopefully he wouldnt be like me and it would be easy for him. I told him the colonosopy itself he didnt have to worry about. Anyway the prep went by very easy, no throwing up and just doing what it was suppose too. Although i was glad he didnt have to suffer like i do, i was kinda thinking, why me kinda thing, lol. So i told him the worse was over and the rest was a piece of cake. So anyway first thing he tells me when i see him afterwards was. That was terrible i was fighing them the whole way!! Im thinking, hmm was it the drugs? As i sleep though all of mine. But anyway i guess the poor guy also reacted in a way no one does to this but on the opp of what i react too, lol. I guess he had a polyp in the top of his colon, they said his colon was extra long, lol. So i guess they had a hard time getting to it to remove it and thus im thinking why he started waking up and fighing them. How horrible is that. I think i would rather do the throwing up. I woke up during my big H surgery ten years ago and its horrible i know. I felt bad telling him all alone that this was the easy part. My manager at work thought it was funny that both of us do what no one else does but both off us do different parts of it. lol. But anyway he still got lucky, his polyp was not a cancer one sooooo he dont have to do his next one for ten years. Me, im still on every five years due to mine being the nasty kind you dont want to find. UGH! So he got lucky there. But anyway on the way home i took him to breakfast as he has with each of my three. Now in two years its my turn again, UGH!
