I'm scheduled for about 4 weeks from today. I'm thinking of installing a flat screen in the bathroom between now and then.

Seventeen hours until my procedure. I am hungrier than heck and I've been to the pooper four times already. I've downed a half gallon of that sweet sickening laxative. Can't wait for this to be over!

Good luck, I see it as a necessary evil.
They found a large colon cancer in me 12 years ago at my first screening colonoscopy at 50. Stage 3a. No symptoms. No family history. No nothing. I am alive and healthy today thanks to colonoscopy. Get yours. Gary |

Positive: you'll lose a few pounds.
Negative: afterwards, you'll be very tempted to eat a lot. Your stomach likely won't be ready!

I have a 10 hour round trip drive the day after my procedure. Is that going to be possible or will I have to pull over every 10 miles to poop?

there will be no poop in the chute that is what the prep is all about. You may want to open the windows in the car though. You DO know they fill you up with air like a Macys parade clown balloon ..right?

+1 except the vast majority of the pumped-in room air returns to your exterior within a couple of hours of procedure end-- and it's not sulfur-laden methane so not much smell (if any) presuming the gut prep worked as intended!!

colonoscopy prep - what a fun night
After my procedure the doctor came in and he said it was Doctors orders to fart as much as possible. He did NOT put a time limit on that. My wife thinks three years is stretching it but I want to be safe so I just let em rip. I can't be to safe! There must be a lot of air they pumped in there.

Lucky me, I just had my first procedure, and they liked me so much that they said I'm on the three year plan!
Woot! |
