Am Delighted for you LM. Don't be too hard on yourself for being crap about going to see a doctor. You are after all a bloke, and we as a sex seem intent on fighting upward moves in the average life expectancy one bad decision at a time....... My Dad was in the Sanitorium with TB in the early 60s, and he went a straight 35 years without darkening the door of a doctor. Lets just say that he had worked up quite a blood pressure problem in that time. He's a lot better about that sort of thing now.

So, for my 50th birthday, The Lady I Walked To The Registry Office With "said it with arseholes" and gave me ... an appointment for a colonoscopy. It's in 48 hours' time.
I'm sure somebody on here has had this done, and I've got one question: You have to drink some muck a day before to make sure you're all ship-shape and Bristol fashion downstairs. (I imagine it's the equivalent of using caustic soda to clean out a motorbike's exhaust pipe.)
Now, what happens if the muck doesn't work properly? Do I have to eat rotten meat or something to make sure my arsehole's empty?
(I read the pamphlet they gave me. If the diagrams are anything to go by, the camera has the length and girth of a brontosaurus's neck.)
