My hypothesis: colonoscopy prep is intentionally miserable so that having a camera jammed up your butt doesn't seem so bad in comparison.
Gross and misogynist Liz Phair talk? But that was her entire raison d'être.jfv wrote: Sat Apr 16, 2022 9:01 amI continue to be happy I left FB.kicker_of_elves wrote: Fri Apr 15, 2022 10:43 am Read a particularly gross and misogynist comment on the PRF FB page in a Liz Phair thread. Disappointing.
Oof. I had this done a couple of years ago. It wasn’t so bad in the end, and I hope the examination works out well for you.

This is my third in 6 years since turning 40, and I don't remember the other times being as unpleasant, both in prep and in recovery. I am particularly displeased with the doctor's procedural notes, specifically the insinuating tone of "The patient tolerated the procedure well" or the backhanded compliment "The quality of the bowel preparation was adequate." Cheeky bastard.sparky wrote: Wed Apr 20, 2022 5:44 amOof. I had this done a couple of years ago. It wasn’t so bad in the end, and I hope the examination works out well for you.
