Hi ladies, got to get one of these, have any of you had one? Am nervous about it so any advice would be great.

I have!
I was soooooo scared. The colonoscopy was fine though (I was half asleep on something!)..... it was the Picolax Laxative the night before that was HELL!
Don't make any plans the night before - your big date's with the toilet. Oh...... and use baby wipes..... much kinder on the skin!
TMI for a Wednesday evening!
I have to be honest. I had one and it was a BREEZE. I was so apprehensive but it was a walk in the park.
And the prep wasn't as bad as some of the 'episodes' I had been having. Yes, you will need baby wipes.
Best of luck...I hope all comes out OK. :wink2:
Get this..... I had mine about 3 months into a new relationship.
Did the picolax at his house.......
I fainted twice......
I come round, and he says to me.... 'um darling, I think you've sh*t on the floor!'
........ we're getting married in 3 months!
Damn that picolax!
😱😷😂😂 sorry but that has made me smile. Never mind using Jamiees wipes, think I will use one of her nappies!! Xx
I have, more than once,and the description of it is much worse than the experience. It was actually not bad at all.
I agree the Picolax (sp?) is the worst bit. The first time a dear friend rang , disguised his voice, and pretended to be a rep of the company enquiring as to how I was getting on with it....oh, how I laughed (after I'd sworn heavily at him)
Seriously, it will be fine, and don't worry about the embarrassment factor. They honestly have seen, heard, and smelt it all before! x
Oh and if I remember rightly they gave us tea & biscuits after free! That was the best bit x
I've had one too and have to agree: the gastroscopy was much worse, although this was mostly due to them not administering my sedative correctly!
The thing I found most uncomfortable about the colonoscopy was the being inflated with air, but part-way-through discovered there's a valve thing they can let some of the air out with - perhaps bear this in mind?
And as for the Picolax: vile stuff. I set my laptop up on the floor of the bathroom with a pile of DVDs to watch - an inspired decision! Really helped to pass the time. Hope all goes well! xx
Lol hope it comes out ok but quiet too!! I know they fill you with air but it has to come out!! �� Great!!
Thanx �� x
That did not happen to me. No air to come out. I was SO apprehensive about that, too. I think I was more afraid of embarassing myself in 'that way' than anything else.
This thread has really made me giggle hope yr pj party goes well hun
