Colonoscopy

I had a colonoscopy a couple of years ago (I had IBS) before I turned 50. Everything came back fine. My wife just had one last week and I had forgotten how much of the prep liquid and water you have to drink (and the amount of time you have to drink it in). Has anyone had a colonoscopy after having RYN? Do they cut down on the amount of prep liquid that you have to drink? I have like 6 or 7 years left before I need to have it done again and I was just curious.

    I had one a month ago and they gave me a prep kit with smaller doses, sounds like maybe the one@mariernest mentions!

    You can now buy a prep that is just two little doses. It costs $125 but worth it. That's what I did
