I had a colonoscopy with this group at TriStar Summit in Hermitage. I have had colonoscopies before, so I was not anxious about this one. The nurse who inserted the needle for my IV really jammed it in. I’ve never had one hurt like this. Yesterday I noticed a 3”x2” bruise on my hand spreading past my wrist. Everything else went well during the procedure, but afterward I was in a great deal of abdominal pain. I had never had this kind of pain with my previous colonoscopies. It lasted until 4:30 PM. My procedure was over by 11:00 AM. Thank goodness this was the last one I’ll ever have to have.

They did great the only thing I didn’t like was that the anesthesiologist didn’t warn me that he’d given me the anesthesia and it freaked me out when I realized I was starting to go under.
