i dont understand why everyone says the solution is the worst part i think it tastes good
My dad had a colonoscopy, he hated drinking that liquid, he blew it up and lost like 10 pownds after that
Very informative.
Everyone I know who’s had a colonoscopy has said the worst part of the procedure was drinking the 4 liters of stuff. They said it tastes like alka seltzer. For the procedure, they were so out of it they didn’t even feel a thing.
I’m 16 years old. And I have to get a colonoscopy on july 5th. And I also have to get an enteroscopy, MRI, and blood tests. It’s going to be a rough summer, but I’ll have to stick it out to find out what’s really wrong. Good luck to anyone else who has to get one of these or has and got results. ♥
I am a 26 year old female whom has been in the hospital for 3 days now. I have a colonoscomy. Tomorrow. They had me drink a gallon of that stuff tonight.
I’m so freakin scared!!!!!!!!!!
As a male over 50 I was stupid to resist having the procedure done. After having my first colonoscopy, I was told that my next one should be 10 years from now. Get over the FEAR and get it done. The prep was the hardest part of the procedure.
