Colonoscopy prep day- AMA (1 Viewer)

[Tecumseh]

Tecumseh’s first colonoscopy is at 12:30 tomorrow. Prep starts in t-minus 22 mins. Go.

Anecdotal, but hitting on a nurse after the colonoscopy might not work out the way you want it to.

You won't make it past 98, fyi.

Did you refer to yourself in the 3rd person prior to this or is it part of the prep?

Part of the prep. Tecumseh is anticipating an out of body experience.

Prepping as well, but I'll post in the existing colo thread.

i refuse to participate here. 1 colon thread here is enough!

Got a letter in the mail yesterday telling me it is time to schedule my next one...

ETA...sorry to hijack your thread Tecumseh. I thought this was the general colonoscopy thread when I clicked on it.

I hope everything comes out alright for you

Asked my new pcp to order a colonoscopy. Group doing the procedure offered some dates. I chose the 1st one, in March ☹
Got a call saying it needed to be scheduled sooner. So I took the 1st available. Dec 27. Diet prep requirements start 3 days before. Will put a damper on the usual Christmas celebrations. ☹

What do you mean diet prep requirements?

I would eat normally all the way up to my prep. The only thing I wouldn't do the day before the prep is drink heavily.

Starting with 3 days before I'm not supposed to eat much fiber stuff. Mostly white bread, crackers, pasta, mashed potatoes plus some protein.

Just noticed it doesn't say anything about alcohol.
