Dear List Friends,

I have a celiac friend who just had her 2nd colonoscopy because of 
celiac & microscopic colitis.  The first time went fine.
This time she had really bad dizziness and neck pain after the procedure 
and now a couple weeks later is still having problems. When my friend 
woke up in pain she couldn't move for hours.  She had xrays that showed 
some structural porblems in her neck.  Just this week, she went for a CT 
Scan and her C6&C7 vertebrae are bulged, pressing on the nerve where 
there had not been a problem before.  Someone told her that they change 
your position on the table during the scope.  I assume she started on 
her side like my daughter did at the beginning.
Can anybody explain to me what maneuvers they might put you through that 
would twist or whiplash your neck doing a colonoscopy?  I believe she 
was completely "out" rather than partially awake.  Or if there are any 
videos or animations on the web about how this is done.  I have found 
some general information, but not much detail.  Hoping to help my friend 
deal with this.
Thanks
Paula in PA
