Yes......worst part is drinking the prep the day prior. It tastes like a sick lemon lime ...you don't drink it......you slug it down your throat. As much as you can handle without stopping.

I had to drink a gallon of it. But I read that they have a new cleanser available that only requires you to drink a quart. That is a lot better than drinking a gallon of lemon lime stuff.


Then, the worst part if having to use the bathroom every 10-15 minutes for 3,4 hours .

Then, when you wake up you are starving. Because you have not eaten in 12-18 hours.


And you can't eat until after it is done.

I have had 3. I had 2 without anesthesia. If you can handle it without getting put to sleep, go for it. It's fun to watch the doc send the camera up your colon.........all the way to your appendix......while you watch.

It only takes 25-30 minutes.

If you can do it without sedation you can walk right out and begin your day. Otherwise, you will be in bed for the rest of the day.....with an upset stomach from the sedation.

Tip: Request that it be done as early as possible..7AM, 8AM.........the sooner it is done, the sooner it is over and the sooner you can eat again. You will be starving.

It isn't fun getting ready for one but they can detect problems early.
SW-User
@SweetMae Yeah everyone should get one
chuck7882 · 61-69, M
Yes. It's painless. The worst part is the day before when you have to drink this horrible concoction that makes you poop your brains out
SW-User
So you have to go to the bathroom ? That's not bad @chuck7882

Yes to find out if I had chrons because my sister has it, but I have bowel tissue damage from past cocaine abuse.
ReneeT · 61-69, M
Yes. I have to go back every 10 years.
SW-User
Why every ten years ? @ReneeT
ReneeT · 61-69, M
@SW-User The first one I had done looked good, so the doc said see you in 10 years. I'm not one to argue with the doc!
Can’t wait for my next one ...
