Bowel Preparation
"Oh Goodness. It sounds nice b/c you get to the pharmacy and they don&#039;t hand you this great big jug to walk out with. It&#039;s 2 little packets. You mix 1 with 5oz of water twice.  Sounds too good to be true right.  That&#039;s because it is.  You then have to follow that with (5) 8 oz of a clear liquid.  With in 5 hours. By the time I was able to get that down, because remember you have to take into consideration running to that toilet every 15 minutes,  it is now time  to start the next packet.  You have to start the next packet 6 hours before your procedure.  So,  if your procedure is at 9am. You are waking up at 3am to take packet number 2. My procedure 6am. I had to take my first packet at 6pm. My 2nd @ 12am. No sleep for me.  It sucks and $$$$"
