My poor husband... He's spent he whole evening "preparing" for his very first colonoscopy tomorrow. His doctor has been urging him to have one done since he turned 50 last yea and tomorrow is the big day. Wish him (us!) luck!

Hope all goes well! Tell your hubby to remind the Doc, to be careful, that he is going where no man has gone before! Leonard
Hi Lori! He did fine and is very glad it's over... He's thankful they only recommend he do this once every 10 years, though! The preparation then night before was much worse than the actual procedure. He was given a sedative and remembers nothing (which is probably a good thing!). One polyp was found and removed but the doctor doesn't think it was anything malignant. A biopsy will be done and he'll get the results on his follow-up visit on the 20th.
Hi Leonard! Poor Ted - he's been the butt (!) of many jokes over the past few days. The morning before his "prep", my Dad called to invite him over for chili dogs. (He's a sick man!) He called all night asking if everything was "coming out okay" too. :) He survived, though - doc must've been gentle! ;)
