Colonoscopy

I had a colonoscopy a couple of weeks ago. The Sunday before the colonoscopy was a fast day which went a lot easier than I expected. This Sunday was the first day I can recall were I went without food for so long. Going without food was not as hard as I had read but perhaps that is because of the cleanse that I started at 3pm that Sunday?
Anyway, I did the cleanse and while that was not fun. I have been through worse in life.
Monday came, I went to the clinic with my brother, filled out the forums the entire time being terrified. I got into the gown, went into the room and they put the stint into my hand. I waited in true terror for the solution that would put me out. When they put that solution into my body I did not think I was going to go out. 30 seconds or less later I was out.
40 minutes later I was awoken feeling great, like I just came from a normal sleep. No pain no problem.
I am not going to say my fear was for nothing but the colonoscopy went very well.
No cancer was the result!
