The actual Colonscopy is very easy, they give you some kind of sedative, the only pain I had was after it was over with, because they have to put air in the colon you can get some bad gas, but that comes out when you first sit up, loudly I might add. The gas part can be embarrassing , especially with the doctor, nurse and your mother in the room The prep is the worst, the stuff I took tasted a little like plain milk. The doctor my tell you you can eat jello or Popsicles, DON'T. That keeps you going longer, also take the emima a little early, I got to the hospital and was still going. Good Luck and I hope everything comes out okay
