    Yep,

    I dropped 5.5 lbs, but it comes right back when you start filling the 'reservoir' again.

    The prep for the Colonoscopy was so delicious in comparison to the middle bowel test.
    The prep for the middle bowel test was horrific.
    The unflavored barium was in a large styrofoam cup, and she handed it to me, and it weighed like there was a gold bar in there or something. This is a 'heavy element' isn't it!
    Certainly was not an 'edible' thing. I could only take in 1/2 teaspoon per sip. Then I had to concentrate on not hurling. I asked her what if I hurl? And she said we would have to start again.
    Then I had to wait (pace) through a couple hours of xray series. Every bit of my concentration on not tossing what felt like a lead weight in my stomach.
    Still with the taste of lawn furniture going on.

    After the test, I went to Toojay's. Ate an egg salad sandwich and promptly ralphed it into the trash can outside.



    Richard-

    24 cans of Brawndo should be the prep. It's got electrolytes.
