After getting my poo test sent out me I returned it and was phoned just a few days later by a lovely lady who took her time to explain that it was required that I receive a colonoscopy, she went on to discuss all aspects of what I could expect.
She didn’t rush any part of the explanation and went over my medical history. Then told me I would be in for the procedure within a week.
A letter duly arrived to confirm all that we had discussed and were to report to.
On the day of the procedure from the receptionist to the nurses and the doctor made me very relaxed and again explained everything that was about to happen.
As for the colonoscopy I was given the choice of gas and air or getting a cannula fitted to your arm to allow sedation to be administered along with pain relief.
The procedure went well with no real discomfort to speak of and the staff made it all very easy.
In recovery again all straight forward with lovey tea and toast, perfect end to the time in the hospital.
I would give everyone involved in my care at the Queen Margaret hospital in Dunfermline top marks and praise them all for the care I was given.
Thank you all.
