Colon cancer testing rates leveling off, CDC finds

[wellstone dem]

11. Just had my first one

It was not nearly as bad as I thought. Actually wasn't bad at all.

Just had to take some Ducolax and then Gatorade mixed with some other over the counter laxative. Actually enjoyed the day off just taking care of me the day before the procedure.

The day of the procedure, the worst part was the nurse making political statements about the poor while she was putting a needle in my arm. (I wrote a letter of complaint that was handled well.)

I was 7 years late and the worst stress was worrying I had waited to long. I finally went because a younger sister had polyps. Also have an uncle who died very young (in his 20s) of colon cancer.

I'm happy to be back on track, and will not be dreading the next one. Oh, all was clear.
