How can one avoid a colonoscopy horror story?

For the bathroom trips, make sure you are close to a bathroom at all times. Have some reading material or something to keep you occupied. You can also try to time your prep so that it doesn't interfere too much with your normal activities. For example, start it earlier in the day if possible.

Firstly, choose a highly experienced and board - certified surgeon. Check their credentials and reviews from previous patients. This can greatly reduce the risk of surgical errors.

Trust your instincts. If something feels off about the person during the initial conversations, don't go on the date. And during the date, if they behave in a way that makes you uncomfortable, don't be afraid to end it early.

A healthy lifestyle is also important. Eating a balanced diet, rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, and low in red meat and processed foods. Also, regular exercise can help keep the prostate healthy. For example, walking or jogging a few times a week can make a difference. Smoking should also be avoided as it can have a negative impact on prostate health.

First, choose a highly experienced surgeon. Look for someone who has done a large number of successful LASIK procedures. Second, make sure you are a suitable candidate for LASIK. This involves a comprehensive eye exam to check for any underlying eye conditions.

Communication is key. Have an open conversation about where the relationship is going. If you sense that you're being led on or that the other person is just using you as a backup option, talk to them about it. Maybe they don't realize how their actions are affecting you. If they're not interested in a romantic relationship and you are, it might be better to step back and give yourself some space to move on.

Do your research. If it's an apartment rental, check reviews of the building or the landlord. If it's a product, research the market value. For job offers, look up the company online. I knew someone who almost got scammed for a car on Craigslist. But because he researched the fair price and the seller's history, he realized it was a bad deal and walked away.

Be honest from the start. If you have romantic feelings, don't just be a 'friend' right away. Let the person know where you stand.

First, choose a very experienced surgeon. Look for someone who has a high success rate in vasectomy reversals. For example, a surgeon who has been doing this type of procedure for many years and has positive reviews from past patients.

Do your research. Know the market rate for the position you're applying for. This way, you can't be easily low - balled. For example, look at salary surveys online.
