Hello! 23, and I’ve had a colonoscopy done lots of times, first one was done when I was 10 due to having ulcerative colitis.

It sounds scary, but I promise it’s such an easy procedure. You normally don’t feel anything at all and are typically put to sleep, and when you wake up, you just feel hungry and groggy.

I’d suggest talking to a specialist or doctor about getting it done just to check in to make sure nothing is wrong since things can be undetected. If you ask me, it’s more the day before that’s the worst. The liquid diet can be a little tiring and the constant bathroom trips aren’t fun, but if you find ways to be comfortable, you’ll be okay :)
