I did not see any mention of diverticulitis (SP)> I had the procedure done. The first procedure was call a "Flex Sig" where they only go to the first bend in the colon and the second one was the full deal. They had given me some sort of sedative. I could fell the camera inching its way through the various curves that it had to travel. The most embarrassing thing was the amount of gas that I passed in the recovery room. But then again that is normal for a guy, what can I say.
LOL, then what's my excuse - I'm a girl. They told me in the recovery room that it happens to everyone because they have to blow air into the colon to open it up - it's kind of like a flat hose - unless that was just a line to diminish my humiliation?
