Same here - in fairness, they have offered - but that's more because I'm over an hour away I think.
Ug. Clyssie is the one they sent me, that I don't intend to use.
Thinking about, you probably are having a less invasive procedure, namely sigmoidoscopy rather than full colonoscopy. Lower bowel prep is appropriate for that. I jumped to conclusions.

That seems to agree with their cartoon explanation ...
New method for youngsters (55+). Don't they give you a choice? I imagine many would prefer to take samples at home, even if it is every two years. This method is once-and-for-all. What if you live to be 95? Can they really be sure that the absence of polyps at 55 guarantees you will be clear for the rest of your life?
yes, I'm 55
I can opt-out of the enema and camera up the bum, if so then they won't contact me about it again, but I can request it any time until I'm 60
Err, this is a DIY forum so you could use a USB endoscope ... (not a serious suggestion)
ZakJames has brought this to us :
I've fitted a couple of these..
They claim 120 degree spread and I woud not dispute that, but they do need a high ceiling to avoid being directly in your eyeline.

I don?t like those because the island bench is long rectangular, 20'x 4'
I have the led strip for the island bench at around the under cupboard height off the work bench, but with no cupboard above it. Works fine.
Snip at 79 shillings and 9 pence (tax paid).
Why not 79 bob and 11 pence though ?.
£4 in 1960 is just over £90 now though :-(
I do have to go and have another look in a loft of one of our posters houses as he has something in his loft with no ballast only a resistor wire. But it's not a Netaline.
Sounds like a half arsed approach. I really can?t see you getting adequate bowel clearance in that time and without proper clearance they can?t do a proper scope. Where is this happening?
I'm remembering a couple of instances of taking Moviprep Orange around teatime in preparation for investigation the following morning. It was hardly worth standing up off the toilet for the next several hours. Not something I would recommend unless there was a clinical reason.
The invite arrived from Nottingham, but it turns out the appointment itself is for Leicester, so a less worrying travel time after the self-applied laxative enema.
Yes,
We have one though and happy with the trade off that it can be warm/white/mixed and dimmable by remote.
Substance over style, I suppose, surprised that I got that past management.
