Is that because of all that Columbian marching powder from your self employed nose Bigpie?

Just to enforce (French verb 'enfoncer' came to mind there) TLP's earlier message about getting checked out. I had problems in my thirties, hence my 'experience' at that time (in the 80's). You're never too young to get investigated and I'm glad I did then.

Good job I did separate this thread out as we would have forgotten what the original thread was for by now.

I've just read this entire thread and although the subject is serious I've found it totally hilarious.

Well done Wurzel for raising the subject in such a manner that makes it easy to chat about.

It sounds like I'm one of the younger members on here but will eventually get checked out as my step father has recently gone through the same.

This your X-ray Wurzel?

You young 'uns don't know what Your missing. Try a barium enema. They fasted me for four days with literally nothing but mugs of Marmite, then stuffed my nether orifice and beyond full of radioactive porridge to get x rays. Loads o' fun. Didn't even get a set of prints off 'em.

Was that your initiation into the CBX 1000 chapter Rusty? I only had to eat an out of date chocolate eclair to join the Cagiva Brotherhood of Imminent doom.

Joe Rocket · « **Reply #53 on:** August 08, 2018, 21:21:49 »

So......do you like Marmite then RN and was it a revalent ingredient to your interieur. I suspect Bovril was used instead.

I was riding through France a while back, on my trusty cb750 sohc, got hit in the face by what I thought was a stone...how wrong I was..face and neck swelled massively, anaphylactic shock, so in hospital the basicaly gave me a jab, and a bottle of pills.
The french nurse gave me a little chat but the only bit I understood was deux one jour, two a day.
Well, on unscrewing the bottle cap to swallow my first tablet I wished they had been half the size and quatre one jour...they were as big as my thumb!
Fast forward a month, back home, a bill turned up for the treatment, my sister, being fluent in french,and a nurse too, translated it, and remarked, 'I bet you had fun with those pills'
My beligerent responce about it being a nightmare getting them down my neck...
Then she told me.......' swallow them?!? Your meant to stick them up your arse!!!'
A french preference I now believe,and so dear friends, both an exit and entry to all intent and purpose...

@tlp unfortunately not, self employment has left me with lower income but I'm getting to spend more time with the kids and do the school runs. Can't really put a price on that but it does mean I've had to knock the marching powder on the head.

I've had laringitis for last couple of months, so it was camera up the nose while my 6 year old observed. Though I'm starting to wonder if they don't like the look of me, I've not once been offered the anal photography package. They've only taken photos of the back of my eye and my vocal chords.

@wurzel, I'll make a note of that. When in France pills go up the arse.

Joe Rocket · « **Reply #56 on:** August 08, 2018, 21:56:57 »

.......and supositories are still prescribed or you can ask for them from a pharmacy......

bummer...eh?

@ ridaz, that's a donkey's x-ray, don't fool yourself.

Marmite, according to the hospital staff, provided sufficient nutrition with zero solids. That plus the sort of tablets you'd love to pop in the gaffer's tea, ensured a completely empty system. Fill it with barium sludge and you get perfect 3d images of said system. They used air first to inflate. I was so weak I passed out in the car on the way home, much to my mrs' amusement.

Been there, done that, twice. They found a polyp the first time, nothing on the 5 year follow-up (phew).
The camera bit was tolerable, the CO2 inflation painful, but the stuff you drink the day before....holy sh*t doesn’t even come close, felt like a jet engine firing up!
Seriously though, if you are invited for a bowel exam, go and have it. If I hadn’t and the polyp was left to keep growing, I hate to think what might have happened.

Those polyps can,if left become nefarious,its good to get checked as we get older, for prostrate too, awareness is also defence.
Women get smear tests, which is great,we need to pushfor the man version,rather than wait for symptoms if we are to have a good end result.
