Yikes! Colonoscopy prep questions?

I am about to start a colonoscopy prep. Did anyone have problems getting the "stuff" down?

Anything I need to be aware of?

Should have checked with my Doc but didn't.

Any help is welcome!

Thank you

I did my best but couldn't get that whole jug down. When I mentioned I hadn't finished the whole thing they said it wasn't a problem. Good luck!

Mine was grape and it was vile. I got it down but it was disgusting. The above poster was right; make sure you have a designated bathroom. Good Luck!

Did you tell them you had a sleeve done or wt loss surgery. They do have a different prep.

Interesting-Yes I did tell them I had a slieeve and also called my bariatric Doc, no special prep provided by either.

I did fine on the 2 doses of yucky stuff. I was concerned I wouldn't be able to drink all the liquid yuck stuff plus Water requirements but didn't have a problem. Wasn't easy but did get all the fluids in.
