I had one years ago because I have a family history of colorectal cancer. The procedure wasn’t bad, and neither was the prep. Last time I did the over the counter prep, not this drink.
How is this one different, and why did you have to do this one?
Propofol is effective as fuck. I imagine that’s what it’s like to die.
Had one a couple of months ago. (See OG colonoscopy thread 2024) The prep/fasting was rough. Otherwise no prob. Propofol is amazing. You got this bro
A few years ago when I had a colonoscopy I asked the nurse what she was injecting. She said propofol and another drug. I said I hadn’t heard of those drugs before. About that time she reached over and shook my arm. I asked her why she did that. She said the procedure was over lol. I literally picked up the conversation where I went out and didn’t even know I was knocked out for an hour.
My guy said “Count to five and I’ll see you on the other side”. I remember saying “6 motherfucker”. Then my wife suddenly appeared in the room and I wasn’t in the same room and the doctor was telling her I had one thing but otherwise perfect. It was a time warp. I didn’t even fart. Well as far as I know.
This tastes like thick saline solution. It’s also 4 liters. The over the counter prep was 2 bottles of the laxative powder and a shot ton of light colored Gatorade.
Good times and great memories of that stuff.
It made me feel like I was high after a while.
Ooof, why the extra gross stuff this time? Just dr preference?
Doc described it this time. I didn’t think about it because last time was pretty easy. I feel
Like shit right now, though. Feel totally depleted and run down. I can’t believe I did this for days at a time to wrestle or fight. I can’t even think straight.
I just had to take a laxative pill and chug two bottles of miralax with any gatorade that wasn’t red. It was pretty easy actually. I just couldn’t trust a fart or leave the house because I wouldn’t know when it would hit.
Its alright, man. The finish is near, time to wrap it up and hit the rack and it’ll soon be all done and completed.
That’s what I did last time. Was way better than this.
Well, Gentlemen…. Here I go. I was up all night pooping my brains out. That medicine is God awful. I’m hopeful that my insides are clean enough for the Dr. to get a good look around. I don’t want to do this again anytime soon. That’s for sure.
Good luck
get your camera as far up there as it will go and take some pics, then post here. we’ll let you know if you’re clean enough
i’ve had a bunch of them. my dad had colon cancer in his late thirties, so that’s when i started.
prep isn’t nearly as bad as it used to be.
a couple of very chilled bottles of mag citrate and a couple of pills, good wet wipes and lots of chicken or beef broth.
Prep was awful this time.
