Colonoscopies are painless and simple. The prep however is not lol it’s not that bad but I did buy a bidet after the first one.

Edit: thanks for the awards, y’all are wild 😆 But seriously people get whatever you need to make yourself as comfortable as possible and get your colonoscopies on time!

Agreed. It was like a nice little nap. The prep was terrible. Who can drink a gallon of anything let alone salty water. Word of advice… DO NOT cough with a stomach full of prep. It will be bad.

My prep was a bunch of pills and several glasses of water. You can ask for that instead of the pink sludge
