I had one about 4 years ago because of my family history.
The worst part for me was drinking all that nasty stuff. It was gross. I ended up only being able to down half off of it but it was still enough to clean me out.
Definitely take the pain medicine. I can't imagine giong through that procedure without anything. OUCH.
Other than that, I remember being a bit groggy a few hours after (and yep.. the whole gas thing too) but was fine enough to go to church that same night.
