<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 8202153, member: 27832&quot;]Can&#039;t help you with the hunger, but maybe with the nerves.</p><p><br /></p><p>I had my first one seven or eight years ago. The prep wasn&#039;t much fun, but the procedure itself was a complete anticlimax. Unfortunately for me, they found several things to snip, so they put me on the every-three-years plan instead of every ten, but I&#039;ve got no problem with that -- I&#039;m <i>completely</i> happy to let them go in as often as they like and snip things <i>so they won&#039;t turn INTO </i>cancer.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, things to remember:</p><ul> <li>There&#039;s no pain or discomfort with the procedure itself. You&#039;re sedated, and won&#039;t remember a thing.</li> <li>The most likely outcome is that they won&#039;t find any problems.</li> <li>If they <b>do</b> find polyps, they can snip them out as part of the process, and that fixes the problem.</li> <li>If they find anything more serious, you&#039;re that much further ahead with getting it diagnosed and fixed.</li> </ul><p>So, just try to avoid thinking about food, and look at it as an opportunity to <b>spend as long as you like in the bathroom with nobody bugging you about it</b>, followed by a nice morning nap at the clinic. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
