@newssvr23.news.prodigy.net: I had the budget version (sigmoidoscopy)done last year. It is an absolute must even though they only harvested a small polyp (benign :-) ). I too passed on the video, although since I was awake I did get to view the monitor in real time. I remember being conscious enough at some point to be sorta watching the video.

Good drugs, I guess... |

The VA gave me the option of the easy way or the full Monty which I chose. My primary care doc explained that the Sigmoidoscopy can "miss things". When it comes to wearing a colostomy bag, I would just as soon not have them "miss" anything even if it is only peanuts. Cheers, Dave I am thankful they found nothing of interest. My dad had worse luck many years back to the point they ended up hacking out half of his colon. His response? A new business card consisting simply of: ; |
