There will be many things in life that are worse, but the prep day before a Colonoscopy is pretty fmdamned horrific.

I have been volunteered for one because sone anti inflamatory meds mess up my stomach

Dont need them all the time but…

So yesterday no food and at 2pm liquid to mix 500cc of water 100cc of clear foul tasting …
But also needed to drink 1 l of water
Took about an hour to work then …

No food.

8pm. Repeat.

I am suitably cleansed have probably lost a much needed inch from my waistline, the night passed without passing but tgecamount of water flushed most salts out my body.
So i woke/was woke every hour through the night needing a pee/water

Now? A 0ne hour trip by bus & tram to hospital
12 minutes in, one is already clenching.

Has to be done. I know some of you have enjoyed the experience…

Ditto, I had a duodenal ulcer when I was 32, haven’t been able to take any anti-inflammatories since then…

I had a camera down my throat to discover that, much more pleasant…

Bowl prep is a right of passage (:person_facepalming:t3:) and gentlemen of a certain age should have all had an ologist have a peak up the wrong 'un.

Done bowel prep twice. It definitely interferes with the “I need a shit-I’ve shat” feedback loop.

I’ve been doing this exercise daily for some months now, can honestly say it makes a huge difference.

Give it a try, what have you got to lose? :+1::+1:
