how do you know you were infected then? a cheap PCR test?

[–]forscher[S] 3 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 3 fun -  (20 children)

They tested my blood. Then they did a colonoscopy. You want the truth? You'll get it.

Actually i was with a whole other case of nonphysical problems hospitalized when this happened.

So i remember it quite well.

Do you think a colonoscopy is fun ?

No, I'm laughing at your humor. I'll be getting that tube up my ass soon myself.

It's not so bad. The cocktail didn't put me out when I had mine, just paralyzed me. That was unpleasant because it was unexpected, but I'm not sure sedation is necessary.

Also don't know why people hate the flush so much. I had a lemon/lime flavor that tasted like shitty Gatorade. Wasn't awful.

Ahh. The fast and clean out before hand doesn't sounds like much fun either.

All for this . I mean like like this, you understand ?

You mostly do mostly frontend as i understand. Do you want a colonoscopy ? You ever applied for it ?

You think now : i did ?

I don't see links, but that's for the best. I will get it soon because I am getting old and don't want to get colon cancer.

My best advice when you get into "this" age is: Get sme you trust. You live in California, so get a jew doctor! Thats the best you can have.

Before you do, look into the risks. I know, I had never heard about colonoscopy being risky either, but putting stuff up your butt can be dangerous.

Incidence of Death After a Perforation From a Colonoscopy or Sigmoidoscopy. The incidence of death subsequent to a perforation within 14 days of a procedure was 51.9 per 1000 colonoscopic perforations and 64.5 per 1000 sigmoidoscopic perforations.

The google claims the risk of a perforation is only 1.6%. Isn't that actually incredibly high? Almost one guy in 50 who gets a colonoscopy ends up with a greater than 50% chance of death???

To be fair, they also contrast the risk of death from a colonoscopy with the average risk of colo-rectal cancer at about 4-5%. So you have to ask yourself, do you feel lucky?

Meh, just paypal me $25k when you get cancer, and I'll tell you what the cure is. Easy.

That sounds like a prostate exam, not a colonoscopy, where they send a camera up there.

[–]forscher[S] 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

But my urologist checked with his finger. I swear. They saw a cyst or something like that and after that they put the camera in there. :)

As long as you felt only one hand on your shoulder.
