I went on a juice fast for 3 days before the prep. It really wasn’t that bad. The stuff they make you drink taste awful even mixed with a sports drink. Glad I don’t have to go back for 5 years.

Don't stray to far from the crapper. Have a goid magazine or two in the "library. "
Plan on treating yourself to a great meal afterwards; it is the only thing to look forward to.
Don't tip the nurses if they laugh.

I took mira lax in gatorade for prep. After everything was all said and don I hadn't eaten in about 40 hours. I had such a migraine. When the put the needle in you watch out if the smack where they are going to insert it.It will hurt. The good ones do so easily you don't even know they put it in. I hope everything goes well.

The guys are right. The prep is the bad part. You won't remember anything about the procedure. Be Well, RZ.

Photos or it didn't happen
Whatever you said...everyone knows you are a lying jerk. That's a bold assertion. Point out where you think I lied. Well?

The prep is not as bad as it used to be. I've had four now and each prep was different. I have my last one set for next year. Not dreading it.
Follow the instructions - the worst thing would be to find out you weren't emptied out enough and had to do it all again. Then relax. There's nothing the staff hasn't seen before, and they won't remember you at all. It will be odd when they cheer and applaud you for farting massively afterwards, but they will. Enjoy the fun.
Best wishes and may they find nothing in there.

Prep sucks...
Doc told me no food day before... ONLY CLEAR LIQUIDS.
I joked about beer...
He said... "Sure, but make it Coors light."
--------------------
Prep on Coors Light SUCKS!
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

I have them every 3-5 years. The hospital that does mine has some really cute nurses in the surgery department. Every time I have one, I always tell my wife that I think I'm going to grope me a feel of one of them when I'm waking up.
Then, she always reminds me who it is that has the car keys and will have to drive me home.
She always seems to bust my bubble every chance she gets.............lol.

It's official. I missed the selfie deadline so I'm Maser's sock puppet because rene and the Polish half of the fubar twins have decided that I am.

If you wake up in post-op and the nurses are all laughing hysterically and pointing at you, it probably just means that your hair is messed up or something. Probably has nothing to do with the size of your anus.

Not as bad as they used to be. Unfortunately, last time I had one I woke up in the middle of the procedure. I guess they were a little light on the anesthesia. It was a bit uncomfortable till they got me back under. Certainly a necessary evil.
Deadlines and commitments, what to leave in, what to leave out...

Very good that you are having this done. If your doc is having you ingest the latest clean-out stuff, the prep will not be as difficult to bear as were earlier modes. The procedure itself is not bothersome - you will awaken not remembering what went on.
I wish you the very best "no problems" report.

A trip to Arby’s is just as good as the ‘show prep’
