The Good Life with Michele Lamoureux

Getting a Colonoscopy - Part 2


Listen Later

I believe in preventative health and today I am discussing my experience getting my second colonoscopy at the age of 53. The recommended age for colonoscopies is now 45 instead of 50. I think many people put it off because they don’t know what is going to happen, so I’m going into detail (without sharing TMI) so you can feel prepared.

I put my colonoscopy off for too long because I didn’t have enough information, so I wanted to share what I know based on what I went through in case it helps you. Also, my first colonoscopy was incomplete. In this solocast I share what was different the second time around, including the anesthesia used and why I scheduled it for a different time of day.

This episode is not advice. It is for entertainment purposes only. Anything dealing with your health should be discussed with your trusted healthcare provider, always.

First Episode I did on getting a colonoscopy.
