And it's not for me, btw. SWMBO was also born in '56 and they're
finally getting around to her colonoscopy but I guess mine will
be coming soon enough.

I've gotten them for a while now, roughly once a year. Unfortunately, my
genes are rife with problems with the "lower unit" so it's part of my
life -- sucks, but it could be much worse. If this is Christine's first
'scope, she might want to consider asking the doc for a slightly higher dose
of Valium (or whichever drug the doc chooses.) For my first one I was so
f'in nervous, the doc doubled my dose before I drifted into la la land.
But(t) it's over before you know it.

All in all, it really could be much, much worse than it is.
