Can't vouch for other facilities, but at that hospital it was nowhere near the horrible experience people used to tell about. In fact, I was mildly sedated and I can honestly say I never felt a thing. I didn't even know when the procedure started or ended. But, I'm sure equipment and techniques have been constantly upgraded. And the results were good. The doctor removed several small polyps and said everything else looked great. No sign of anything out of the ordinary.
The worst part of it was drinking that horrible stuff they give you to clean you out before the procedure.
I'll urge everyone over about 50 to get one. You could wind up nipping something in the bud.
Colonoscopy is a walk in the park compared to prostate cancer...had both last year. Wife had her first yesterday, we were both cleared for the next 10 years. Get it done...and also the prostate exam for those guys out there.
They told me I was good for 10 years also. I said "I'll se you in 3". Dad and Uncle both died of colorectal cancer. 10 years is too long a span. Least for me.
I have had 3 or 4. Generally I find them a pain in the A$$ !
