Bowel Preparation
"I just completed my bowel prep prior to my colonoscopy yesterday. I am thankful for a couple of tips from this site: low fiber diet for a few days before procedure; only  liquids the day before; chilled water to dilute Suprep; and use of a thick straw to drink Suprep. All these were very helpful. I was afraid of nausea so I made a batch of ginger syrup the day before (4 oz peeled sliced ginger, 1 cup water, 1 cup sugar and vanilla bean boiled for 30 mins. Strain and add joice of half a lime.) I had a spoonful and then started drinking. Then another spoonful and kept drinking. The ginger flavor is quite strong (you have to love ginger) and persists during the swallowing of Suprep. I got it down in 10 mins both times. Also wear Depends."
