- Do some people actually find it easier if they put their feet up?
- If a guy stands on a chair, is it more challenging? Like a solitary sport event?
- Comfortable puking? It would beat kneeling around the bowl.
- Is there something that happens after a colonoscopy that I need to know about for the future? Something requiring a coach/partner?
It kind of reminded me of potty training my daughter - she got number 1 easy but number 2 required much hand holding - there was definitely a fear factor going on. Thank goodness when she finally conquered the fear there was no going back. But this is an adult GI clinic, not a pediatric behavior clinic.
I guess I'll never know. Maybe it's better if I don't.

Perhaps they couldn't do their second enema and the RNs made them do it there.
This had me smiling. Not sure I want to know the explanation either.
Ack! You have to have two enemas before a colonoscopy? And here I thought you just had to drink a big bottle of Go-Litely. Guess I could just ask Dr. Colon - he would know.
I think it depends upon how far they plan to scope. Sig. Flex and you need 2 enemas. If you're getting the full scope.. glug-glug.
Ha, looks like some sort of cooperative event. Glad I wasn't involved.
DC - you saw more scopes than me. Come to think of it, I don't think I ever watched one. But I sit right next door to them now all the time. Phew! I haven't carried such a stench since I was in the autopsy suite.
Haha! So many interesting possibilities.
Please don't suggest sport peeing to my teens. They have enough trouble hitting the pot to begin with. I was hoping they'd grow out of it, but apparently taller means poorer aim.
Ha! So does this mean I have no hope for my six year old?
