I have a colonoscopy tomorrow for the 5th time in life. Was told I could mix lemon juice but I am not keen on that. If it were just a glass or two maybe, but not so many.

A good trick is to use a large straw (or double straws) aimed at the back of the mouth.

Having an endoscopy and colonospy tomorrow. Prep is Moviprep. Pain is, off coumadin for 5 days and the Lovenox belly shots are the bridge.

Having one in two weeks. Saved my life last year so I am grateful. Yes, the worst part is drinking ALL that fluid but now they have two smaller bottles you drink twice in a day. Not nearly as bad. Or so I hope!

I had to have them starting at 40 due to family history.

When I do not eat I get really bad migraines. With my migraines I get very nauseous. 2am was not pleasant---

As it turned out... my system wasn't flushed out well enough. I had a cold, bad timing, whatever... doctor is a great guy and wasn't mad. Had me do the whole procedure again for today and went very well with nothing found. Don't need to test again for 10 years. Thank goodness... seriously had enough of that.

Just ordered Greek dinner. :)

Seriously recommend everyone 40 or 50 years-old get checked. Do it for yourself & loved ones!
