OT Colonoscopy tomorrow (Friday)
The subject tells it all. Today I am consuming large quantities of vile
tasting liquids and eating nothing solid. Also, I am not getting to far from the throne room! At least the cats are happy that I will be home all day. ---MIKE--- In the White Mountains of New Hampshire (44° 15' N - Elevation 1580') |

This is one time when someone says you are full of it that you can truthfully say that you are not. Bud If you chill the liquids it helps. Also a nurse told me about a drink powder I could add to make the liquid more palatable...er, less unpalatable, but that sort of thing you need to check out yourself. Anyway, they often give good drugs on the day. -- Cheryl |

I had some vile "lemon/lime" flavor. Liquids the day before (white liquids mind you), and 1/2 the bottle in the evening, the other 1/2 first thing in the morning ((((((shudder))))). You have my sympathies on the prep. May the procedure go well for you, and may you get an "all clear" reading. Versed (conscious sedation) isn't bad, I remember the doc asking if I'd like him to fluff my pillow for me, me saying, no it's fine, and that was the end of my memory of the event (but I was technically awake, they said). |

For the record, I am not a "virgin". This will be my third colonoscopy
in a year and a half (my doctor still has a few boat payments to make). I am about half way through the prep. ---MIKE--- In the White Mountains of New Hampshire (44° 15' N - Elevation 1580') |

I had an endoscopy a few years ago, and was careful to ask if they used the same tubes going up as they use going down. They assured me that they don't, and that everything is carefully sterilised between patients. There was an elderly lady next to me who was getting the 'going up' treatment, and she looked really miserable about it, especially when she confided to me that it was her 70th birthday. |

"---MIKE---" For the record, I am not a "virgin". This will be my third colonoscopy in a year and a half (my doctor still has a few boat payments to make). I am about half way through the prep. Purrs for it to go well. I've had 4 and was awake for one of them and make sure they knock you out. Best wishes. Hope this is your last one and they find nothing wrong.
