The Nasty Prep
 

Not sure whether to post this here or in "Beer&Beverage"???

OK, I'm on nothing but clear fluids today in prep for the colonoscopy tomorrow and it says drink nothing but clear fluids and nothing RED the day before, except that red cranberry juice is OK....is beer a clear fluid?

I guess wheat beers are OUT, that's OK I don't like them anyways...no red fluids so I guess Irish Reds are OUT, coffee (black) is OK so does than mean Guinness and other stouts are OK...if nothing else there are always lagers (got plenty of Sam around) which should meet the requirement. Need some source of calories. For every beer, maybe 2 glasses of water?

Anyways, everyone else enjoy your BIG meals today and think of me with every bite.:wall:

have fun reading

I was dreading it... wasn't that bad. Extra soft TP... And don't trust a fart.....

My 2nd time so I know what to expect...the unexpected! I get to take the pills (OsmoPrep) so not as bad as having to drinking quarts and quarts of barium!

that's cheatin

google just served me this ad.

:hee:

Colonoscopy for Dummies | Colonoscopy Procedure Resource

i like the camera pill
i wanna try that next time

The worst part was drinking that aweful stuff... the procedure was not bad... I was out for all of it and snapped back very fast when I went home

The MD (Gavriel Meron) that invented the pillcam is on our board of directors! Don't think it is useful in lower bowel/large intestine screening.

So.... clean as a whistle???? What's for dinner? We used to have a thread to list how much weight you lost, so that, as Tagger said, we could determine how full of it you were.....:rotf2

Another perfect as*hole! Probably left over ham from the big dinner I missed yesterday with family.

Worse part is expelling all the air/gas the Dr. used to inflate the intestine to see...:fart2:

You always have been a windbag, what else is new?
