I've had a sigmoidoscopy which is a mini-colonoscopy I think - like everyone else's experience, the enema was far worse than the procedure itself. Mine was to investigate what was then diagnosed as 'jogger's colon' - blood in the poo after a long run - which I'm pleased to say resolved itself. But certainly worth getting checked out to put my mind at rest. |

Why does "jogger's" anything sound so rude and dismissive?

I too have had a colonoscopy and agree the day before us far worse than the procedure, especially when you have a houseful of builders!!!

Makes me think that «builder’s tea» should be cockney rhyming slang!

Why does "jogger's" anything sound so rude and dismissive? I replied rather indignantly that I was a runner not a jogger and the consultant said 'Everyone says that!' So why not call it runner's colon then? |

"Colon" and "running" probably aren't a great mental image for most people!

There is a condition called lorry driver’s arse. Google at your own risk.

Totally agree on day before colonoscopy being the worst, especially if the day before happens to be your birthday!

There's a snack sold in Japan called Strawberry Colon. (ok, they write it as Collon, but still, it's little tubular sections of wafer with a strawberry cream filling.) |
