Don't laugh, I actually did have both done once on the same day back to back. The tech promised it was the endoscopy first.

I can only hope that it was done in the preferable order.

Yup, your colon travels forward in time and expels what you haven't eaten yet...
And my doctor was the cutest brunette ......the definition of indignity.

Re: Colonoscopy
 

I have always wondered, ever since watching the Robin Williams standup comedy where he jokes about this.... do they really shoot air up your ass to puff out the intestine ahead?

are you indeed the farty-est you have ever been after one of these procedures?

Re: Colonoscopy
 

Yes and Yes.

Afterwards, I was in a room full of other guys who along with me, were told it was perfectly fine to fart up a storm and to not be embarrassed..........and we obliged.

Wow, just heard an Atlanta hospital has advised around 500 patients to have themselves tested due to Colonoscopy equipment used without cleaning.
Yikes!

Re: Colonoscopy
 

We had a scandal here in Vegas 4 years ago over improper cleaning and reusing needles and vials. 14 doctors and tens of thousands of patients involved. Unfortunately some of them contacted hepatitis, and I believe a few have AIDS now. The MD that ran the whole operation is still fighting going to trial, with his lawyers arguing he's too sick now to go to court. And most of the doctors involved are still practicing here. Talk about a crock.

For the record, hospitals are NO place to get better!
