Robin,

Believe me it is not what we think the test will be. I think our perception
of the test just turns us off from having it. I had the test done and the
dr. found three benign polyups which he removed. I am relieved I went.

A little hint: about two to three days piror to test and starting to prepare
for the test...eat very small light meals this way the prep will not be such
a major burden. I found this helped - also when eating light do not eat bulk
fiber foods - I had jello, ice - cream - plain veggie soup broth. It went
a heck of a lot easier during the prep time.

Keep us posted and wishing you a good test!

Regards,
jean
