Post Colonoscopy Results (blogish type thing)
I'm mostly just doing this thread for myself, but you're all free to follow along and give me advice The colonoscopy prep and colonoscopy is done, and I posted the results in my most recent post. I have a follow up appointment soonish and I'll be starting some sort of mesalamine type drug soon (doubt it'll work...been on it before). I know I preach the cannabis thing, but that's what kept me in remission for 4 years and I only started flaring again after I quit for a month. So it'll be cannabis, mesalamine and a carefully planned diet from now on. Thanks for reading :ycool:
Hello people :ybiggrin:
I've noticed a lot of new members constantly asking about colonoscopy prep, how bad it is, what to expect, etc....well, I have a colonoscopy Monday at 3 and I thought I'd document my experience.
This will be my fourth scope (i'm 22) and the experience gets easier every time. It was quite a bit for an 11 year old to handle (my first scope) but it's really not that bad. I'm actually looking forward to this colon cleanse since I've felt quite a bit plugged up lately!
Technically, I'm allowed to eat until Midnight, but all day today and Sunday I will be mostly sticking to liquids like water, broth, nestle boost drinks and things of that nature (Maybe a few pieces of toast for dinner if i'm starving). I just have an odd feeling that i'll need an extra day to clear out after pigging out on Thanksgiving :ybiggrin:
My directions for today:
-Drink at least 8 glasses of water (2 down already)
-Eat healthy meals (will be sticking to Boost drinks, broth and maybe some toast)
-No eating after midnight (that wont be a problem)
Tomorrow:
-I will prep my Golytely :dance: early to get it nice and cold...and i'll start chugging around 3pm (if college taught me anything, it's how to chug :cool2
-Only water and broth for me.
Alright, not sure if people are interested in this thread, but I will continue to update every few hours. Today will be uneventful (too many good football games) but tomorrow shall be fun. I will update until I get my results Monday afternoon (hopefully just some minor inflammation)
I hope somebody finds this useful/entertaining in some way :ysmile: Take it easy guys!......Go Ducks :ytongue:
