I’ve had them removed twice.

Ditto me that....but last July the doc found an unusually shaped one that he couldn't snag; he didn't like the looks of it, so suggested I have it surgically removed.

Bottom line was after the surgeon yanked a foot of large intestine (which is standard procedure) he saw some diverticulosis in the neighborhood so he proceeded to yank another large section. The only good part is that everything was benign.

Five days in the hospital, and I'm a really sh*tty patient. I'm gonna think hard and fast about doing another colonoscopy.

Well, I’m sorry to hear that. In time the memory will fade, but at least you’ll still have a memory.

All the best to you.
