Karl Childers gets a Colonoscopy

When I went in for my first one the nurse asked me if I'd reviewed the possible adverse outcomes of a colonoscopy with the doctor. I said, "Like what?" She says, "Well, although it's highly unlikely the scope could pierce the wall of the colon and you may have to have an emergency resection. That would of course mean you'd wear a colostomy bag for about 6 months."

I said, "Hell no he didn't tell me anything like that! I could have used that information before I came in here today!"
