Bowel Preparation
"I began the first prep at 6pm.  I mixed it with ice cold water and lemon Crystal Light.  Not too bad.  I finished the first prep within the allotted one hour.  The worst part was cramping, bloating and chills.  Everything that came out was solid waste.  I began the second prep at 2am.  This one took almost three hours to finish (drained).  But everything that came out was mostly water-based.  Also, no cramping, bloating or chills.  The colonoscopy was a total breeze.  My gastro called me a lovely patient.  The key I believe is to have as little undigested food in your GI tract as possible prior to the prep, which is where fasting for at least one day comes into play. (Worked for me)"
