I am quite experienced with this procedure having had a good few of them in the past at the Western General and have had little or no after effects - the preparation day beforehand is always the worst part of it! .
My colonoscopy last week at the QMH was the first of my "5 yearly" follow ups. The only down side this time was that I had quite bad pain in my bowel for a few hours afterwards due to trapped wind. This was eventually relieved in the early evening by several bouts of major flatulence over a period of about 30 minutes.
I could not fault the service or staff. Everything was handled in a friendly, polite, professional manner.
