That's really the worst drink I ever had to drink.
Reminds me of the scene in Harry Potter when Dumbledore drinks the Potion of Despair.

Preventing colon cancer is all about doing stuff early. You did the right thing.
Now, you get to ride the black snake a little more often, until you're an old geezer.
But that beats the alternative.

Most recent guidelines are to skip colonoscopy if you’re >75 years.
Unless you have a history of polyps or other risk factors. . Then continue.

Got to wonder, though...Older you get, the higher the chances of a perforation.

One of the surgeons I worked with was deathly afraid of getting colon cancer. He was about 40 years old when he had his first colonoscopy.
Yup he perfed.
