Yeah, it's always nice to have that checked off! I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't as horrible as I had imagined it to be with others' stories. But it's not great fun, either, the

I am just glad it is over with now. I had one 11 years ago because I was having bowel problem then. This one was just a part of my physical this year.
