For the rookies...

1. Prep work is everything.
2. Take the pills, not the liquid
3. Know that the pills will disable your usual "indicators". Assume that you have to go.
4. Read number three again.
5. Get a cool doctor who lets you choose the music for your procedure.
6. You can't go wrong with the theme from Star Trek (where no man has gone before)
7. You won't remember much after the first few bars except your doctor asking "isn't it weird to hear the song without the "whoosh" of the Enterprise flying by....
8. ... until he wakes you up saying "your innards are really twisty. We have to flip you again."
9. Afterwards they give you apple juice that tastes like nectar of the gods!
10. IHOP!
That is all!

Prep is everything...the understatement of a lifetime! Hope you are okay;)
Thanks for the advice!
Love that you chose Star Trek. Brilliant! Hopefully your tubes are all in order.
I wish I'd had an option for music during my recall Mammo/Sono today ..
Sigh...I did the mammogram at 37...do I hafta do this?
HA! What a perfect photo for this! You're too, too funny!
Gah! It sucks. Glad your doc has a sense of humor. And do NOT be at the exact opposite end of the house after taking the first dose of go-juice. Accidentally washed my cell phone in my jeans pocket after that. Just sayin'.
