I've had a few colonoscopies personality. The prep is definitely the worst part. TMI spoils?

The pills apparently you take 12 within 20-30 minutes. She started that at 6pm. I still hear her getting up and speed walking to the bathroom 3 hours later. But it's been a bit, now, she is trying to get some rest/sleep. But she has to get up at 4am to finish the prep.
My old prep was the 3 ounces or Fleets. I never did the gallon of liquid chalk or pills. And getting up at 4 am too finish suuucks. Last time I felt like I might poop my pants all morning in the way to the oscopy
I'm due for another this year too. It's never a good time. But the less you eat the less horrible it is. I've always started the jello diet two days before. So, oscopy on Wednesday, start jello Monday around lunch. Take a OTC laxative Monday night like a Dolcalax. Tuesday nothing but jello, water and broth. Tuesday night the prep. Have plenty of soft TP and wipes. Your ass will be burning and hurting from the wiping and the bile coming out.
