Good luck, Cap'n. My mom had Crohn's Disease and had to go through these quite often. She always said the prep was much worse than the actual event.

On a related note, I encourage everyone here to take a serious look at purchasing a Colon Cleansing Kit to rid yourself of that pesky mucoid plaque.

Don't forget to post photos of the results on this site!  :thumbup:

There are still some good ones left...even that you can fit with your user name.

Just a few more to go...





Working like a charm...

Well...that ought to finish it up. Thank you for your assistance.

I am having it done at noon tomorrow. Just a regular screening I've been putting off for a couple of years.

Everyone I talk to that's had one says it's a snap, you go in they knock you out do their thing and you wake up in recovery none the wiser.

The hard part is what I'm doing today, the clean out.  There are three different ways to choose from, two involving drinking a lot of foul tasting liquid and one involving pills.

I chose the pills which have a drawback,  you must have nothing to eat for 24 hours and can only have clear liquids. 

I got up this morning and had lemon jello and black coffee for breakfast (both allowed on the clear liquid diet), then I had to take 4 of these horse pills (with a full glass of water)every 15 minutes for an hour (they went to work very quickly).  Then I have to intake at least 8 oz of clear liquid every hour until 6:00 PM when I have to take 4 pills every 15 minutes for half an hour.

Right now my ass feels like it's been through a grinder, my stomach is groaning  and I still have about 20 more hours before I have to be at the  clinic and probably two more after that before I get to eat anything.

Say a prayer for me guys.   

Best wishes.

In the summer of 2007 I suffered a medical emergency and actually had to have a colostomy bag for a few months, though they were able to reverse it. In either case, between those two operations and my long stays in the hospital, I had to go for a number of tests, including a few colonoscopies, and I know exactly how much a b***h that day of prep is. Plus, I'm a fat kid. A whole day of broth and little else isn't easy. At least you don't have to get a barium enema done.


I don't know if anyone here has ever had to drink barium for a medical test, but if you have... just imagine having your arse-end pumped full of oodles and oodles of the stuff. THAT sucks!

Those pictures are highly disgusting.  The guy who chose to photograph his "results" in a collander is the most disturbing. If Cap'n had only looked at those photos, I'm sure his appetite would have left him alone.

It's interesting most chose to use chopsticks, but I suppose those are the logical utensils to use to pick globs of disgusting rubbery poo out of your toilet.

Kudos to "Linda from the USA" for scooping up and displaying her results bare-handed.  :cheers:
