Worried about a colonoscopy

Has any one had a colonoscopy through their colostomy? Do they use the same process as a regular colonoscopy? The unknow is really getting to me.

yes i am having one also on dec 4, i hear they go in the stoma, i also have large hernia under my stoma, this is all just to much for me. i am just so depressed. so scared to have the reversal, but again can't wait. what i am afraid of is trying to find the right doctor.
