Today is "'prep" day for tomorrows colonosccopy [View all]

Last edited Mon Jun 1, 2026, 02:13 PM - Edit history (1)

So I won't be leaving the house after 0900. I know what to expect - I've undergone three of these before. I'm hoping the results from this one is at least as good as the previous ones (several small polyps that were easily removed during the procedure).

Wish me luck.

On edit: Everything went well. As usual the prep was the worst part. Four liters of laxative (to which I added Crystal Lite lemonade mix as recommended by a nurse during a phone call a week prior). Three small polyps were found and removed - very similar to previous procedures. Going to try to catch up on my sleep this afternoon.

Thanks for sending all the good vibes!
