Oh Ditter, this one is so funny. But, I can add a humorous ending to this. I had my colonoscopy on my 50th birthday. Being my first such procedure, I followed the three day diet to the letter. Day of the test, I was so very nervous. I was afraid they would forget to medicate me, to make me go to sleep. Told the nurses and anyone else who would listen. So what happens to me.....?? Apparanetly there are people who Do Not Fall Asleep during these tests. I felt NO pain, but was wide awake and feeling kind of stoned. Yuppers, I was child of the 70's LOL. I watched the video screen of the procedure,asking questions, and I recall at one point I started humming the Beatles - Yellow submarine. The doctor wanted to know what I was saying, so I started singing it out loud to him. hahahaha He told me to be quiet, I was distracting him from the procedure. I told him, well put me to sleep then. And that is when I found out that not all of us sleep. Doctor swore he gave me meds so I would NOT recall any of the procedure. Boy was he wrong. I was able to recall everything he said to me for the entire hour or so. Next time, I will be sure to ask for double drugs/medicated Before I go to lab :roll: :thumbup:
