This is too timely!  I'm sitting in the waiting room - gonna have my first in a just a bit!

I've had 2 so far. The prep is the worst part, but manageable if you don't stray too far from a toilet. Get it done early so you can sleep without worrying about spackling the bed. The actual procedure is a really good nap. In recovery, you'll be farting out all that gas they pump into you.

And I always have a good take-out meal planned to pick up on the way home.

Dang.  That was quick and easy!  And reassuring.  Big ribeye on the egg tonight!

went in several years back, was told sedatives were not covered for my age group.  watching it live on tv was interesting, gassing out chilis resteraunt afterwards was priceless

Sitting at home recovering from a Colectomy now. I'm 46 with no family history (that I know of) and was diagnosed with colon cancer two weeks ago. Surgery appears to have got all of it. Get checked. 

@tarheelmatt - I am going to bust a stitch laughing at your posts. Good stuff!

if there is no sedation, does this actually hurt? I am a virgin if you needed to know.....

i went in with an intense gut pain that lasted maybe 9 months, they were in a good 4 feet before the air pressure blowing it all up like a balloon was even noticable. never found what was causing the gut pain

As they pumped air in and I "expelled" it... The nurses said it was morning music.

Dang! Glad to hear they got it all out. Praying for a speedy recovery.

Thanks for the kind words guys. This is a good opportunity to spend some quality time with my egg ( and my wife!). Should be up to doing a butt next week. Pun intended.

It's no big deal with sedation.  The prep session the day before does require that you stay close to a toilet.
