Did colonoscopy! Just woke up! Results inside.

Did colonoscopy; just woke up from the propofol. No polyps, no cancer! :D Only mild/moderate diverticulosis and 3 tiny internal hemorrhoids and ONE REALLY BIG ANGRY one that had prolapsed near the entrance that I knew was there, the initial anoscopy and digital exams by the other doctor just didn't see it. I felt it prolapse at the end of prep and that was the only time I bled when I wiped. That's the one that caused the bleeding.

The worst part of it all wasn’t the prep for me, though the sore butthole and prolapsed hemorrhoid were very annoying. It was not being able to eat what I wanted because I was on the low fiber diet for 4 days, lol. And a close second was putting in the damn IV, because I had small veins and their initial attempt on my wrist didn’t work (it was also the wrist with carpal tunnel, but it was more uncomfortable than outright painful). But the one they put in my arm was like nothing, like less painful than getting blood drawn. And the propofol was great, both thumbs up. Didn’t feel any pain when I woke up, I asked them if I should expect gas/bloating when I woke up, they said they do insert gas but also suction it out. So all a-ok here.

I’m glad I did it, but also glad it’s over and I’m outta there. Thank you so much to everyone who consoled me and offered me support/advice!!! :) I really appreciate it.
