Holy cow, two colonoscopies a year is a lot. I have one every three years because of family history. I wonder what the stats are for perforation of the bowel lining.

My husband had a colonscopy in the fall. The doctor told him to avoid fatty foods. He went out and had a huge breakfast. Yikes. Sometimes it's so hard not to say "I told you so".
