Bowel Cancer Australia Ambassador, Miriam Margolyes, share's her colonoscopy experience.
I have just had a colonoscopy.
Which means, something goes up your bum with a camera on the end of it.
And they wriggle all the way round and see what you've got to offer.
And then they snip out any stuff that looks not good.
And that goes away for inspection - a biopsy.
And I've been apparently in recovery for 40 minutes.
And I woke up slowly and pleasantly, to be surrounded by smiling faces and given a delicious sandwich.
My tummy is sore and I'm aware of discomfort in my tummy, but I am not in pain.
And I feel very calm and relaxed.
I was happy to be filmed because it might help somebody who’s not very sure about having some investigations done.
It might reassure them.
So, listen up folks - this was my colonoscopy experience.
Please share yours.
