Colonscopy & endoscopy same day

Thanks

That does  say a lot for me save the hassel for with hurricane season coming up and we are on call 24/7 during the seasona nd go where ever we are needed I am get it over and done with  on tha same day. I have the f stuff to drink too. so when I get it doen I will post next day how I feel then when I get the results on July 13th because my dr is on vacion for 3 weeks in the month of June. BUt also will see PCp on June 6th so maybe she can give me some of the report then  too. But like yuo get the hassel over and done with so I get on with what I have to do. Heidi

Me too, Heidi! My GI scheduled both on the same day which makes me a bit nervous. Do they flip you over, one end to the other ? My appt. is not until june 22. I have Crohn's disease, so I am use to both scopes. Although, I never had them both done at the same time. Helloki, is right. It's probably better to get both done and over with! Good luck on the 2nd and let us know how you are. ~ Sindi

I must say that this sounds like a very good idea...get it over at once. I had my endoscopy without a sedative twice and the last time it was very painful. I have a bleeding ulcer and feel ok but had problems with the new med's regime. Found out you can take ppi's at night as they have a 24 hour suspension. This is helpful because sometimes you have to eat without planning or forget to take med or double up because you don't remember if you took it, etc.
