Bowel Preparation
"I&#039;m 50 ; never had a colonoscopy.  Yes, not smart.  But needed one now.  MoviPrep Spit-dose was surprisingly expensive.  Heard lots of negatives re: the prep procedure so, I researched and thanks to this website, found some good suggestions to get through the &#039;gross time&#039;.  Mixed it with cool water directly from the faucet and left it on the counter while I drank the first obligatory 4 8-oz glasses-15min apart within 1-hr. Prep had salty/citrus taste--not good. I used 2 straws, took big gulps and after each gulp, drank a mouthful of clear liq (Snapple) to get rid of taste.  Then drank 16 oz. clear liq.  Prep worked quickly-within 2 hrs.  Woke up 4 a.m. next day; got through 3 glasses of Prep; couldn&#039;t drink more.  But all was clear for test."
