Anyone ever go for a colonoscopy????

[Pam]

Yep, I've had one. The prep is the worst part for sure as others have said. Since Donna has already started drinking the stuff, we won't be hearing from her for quite a while unless of course she has a laptop and is typing from the potty! You literally can't leave the bathroom!

Still alive and reporting from...you got it

THE POTTIE!!!!

But I've got great company. Lil Rorie who we THOUGHT was a girl, is actually a boy (I forgot to look and she was too feral yesterday). He's purring like a kitten and playing with his toys. I'm almost done with the jug and will probably have a permanent toilet seat ring on my butt!!

I'm glad I'm doing this. The stuff really isn't that bad once you get used to it. I'll be curious to see if they find anything. I'm off from work tomorrow and Thursday and plan on having a nice dinner with my kid when this is all over.

Thanks for keeping me company guys!! The prep IS the worst.

Sweetheart, I'll be there in spirit to help you get through this.

Oh Donna, I feel your pain...literally. I just had one done last week

Luckily my prep wasn't near as bad as what you have to drink. Mine was just 1.5 oz of what tasted like salt water mixed with whatever drink I chose at night, then 1 oz the next morning.

I hope your appointment is early, mine wasn't until 2:15 in the afternoon
48 hours with no food makes one hungry!

Good luck!

My mom had one not too long ago and she suggested starting a good book lol! She also had her birds to keep her company, along with encuraging bathroom noises. (I keep telling mom not to keep Scarlet, her African Grey, with in noise distance of the bathroom )
The worst part should be over for you now. *HUGS* and prayers that you get a clean bill of health!
Go enjoy a good dinner too

Donna, I had one several years ago and I'm scheduled for another one in August. I just kept thinking of the benefit of the prep. Afterwards, you feel great because there's nothing there anymore!! The colonoscopy itself is over before you know it. Good luck with it. {{{{{HUGS}}}}}
