6. never having a colonoscopy again

I'm in my seventies. The prep this last time was much worse, very debilitating, because they no longer use the easier one since it in very rare cases causes some organ damage. I thought I was going to faint from weakness from the diarrhea effect. I have a heart problem, so it would be crazy for me to go through this again. In some respects, doctors are lack sense.
