and it was a BREEZE.........I read ALL the Material, took the Prescription to be fill for the Prep. work, it cost $53. So I took some Dieters Tea instead, I was already FASTING.

I had an Early App. and did not want to ask anyone to take me, so I drove Myself and opted for NO MEDS........ NO MEDS, they acted like it could NOT be done, so I agreed that I would take it if I needed it half way through....I AM NOT NATURAL..........I'M SUPERNATURAL. I Breezed through that little EXZAM and I think the Doctor is STILL talking about me. He said I was the second patient he had done without meds.

They watched me for 10 minutes while I was dressing and I was out of there. Others were on the Stretcher.........Knocked out.

WANNA SEE MY RAWONDERFUL COLON................

Good for you! I'm impressed! Got any supernatural tips for getting through it?

Was it the pre-meds that cost $53? May I ask what the cost of the entire procedure was? How much did you save not getting the anethesia?

Sorry about all the questions. Don't feel obligated to answer. I ask because my husband and I are both over 50 and the doctor recommends the procedure. I've priced it at $3,000. We have insurance but it would still cost $2,000 each because of our high deductible. Which is why we haven't done it yet.

The Pre-meds cost $53-. I don't know what the whole thing cost or if I saved them Money by not getting sedated. I guess I'll find out if the send me a duplicate of the bill. I only have to pay a Co-pay.

How to get through it.........Just act like you are Having a Baby........When you Feel a pain..........BREATH.
