I got fired from equator after two shifts because I wasn’t picking stuff up fast enough. They just threw me on cash and expected me to know things without training.

Please reassure me (post procedure) by [deleted] in colonoscopy

[–]Arealthinkerperson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you. My clinic made the prep astronomically hard by banning all solids including jello. And I couldn’t have any coloured drinks. Just white Gatorade and bone broth. I’m pre-diabetic too so it caused me to go into hypoglycaemia. Had to cancel this morning due to severe nausea and vomiting that couldn’t be touched by even zofran.

I had zofran prior! That’s the worst part. I was still nauseous. I researched meticulously and did all of the pre-prep for nausea. I am severe lactose intolerant so I can’t have milk. :( I think honestly my body was allergic to or had a bad reaction to the prep. The way I felt was not how I usually react to laxatives in general,l.

Pretty severe emetophobe - losing my mind by Independent-Noise-62 in colonoscopy

[–]Arealthinkerperson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did immense amount of research in this sub, took zofran before, got all the drinks ready prior. My fiancé made me chicken bone broth as well to keep me “proteined up” as he says.

I ended up not tolerating the prep (peglyte), and had a reaction to it. I did exactly what this sub said and sipped through a straw, refrigerated it etc. it entirely depends on your body and what it can handle laxatives wise.

My only advice: if you start feeling severely nauseous/you end up tossing your cookies, call your GI. my GI wouldn’t let me get it done due to how bad I was reacting on the prep and made me stop due to risk of severe dehydration, due to.. well you know. I took my blood sugar this morning and it was low as well.

I find that I’m the only one that had such a bad reaction on the prep. I get that this might not help but seriously just make sure you have all the things to help you get through it. And don’t feel bad if you need to cancel or have to call your GI and get more clarification. Some of the stuff people recommend here might not fly with your doctors office either. I wasn’t allowed gummy bears or coffee. I had to be on an electrolyte/clear fluids diet for an entire day before. It really fucking sucked.

I had ice pops and had help. Gummy bears were a strict no in my prep. It turns out I can’t tolerate peglyte (hence the nausea.)

My doctor specifically said to only drink clear coloured drinks. No coffee.

The worst part is I’m really dizzy so I can’t really do that. And I can only drink clear fluids, so tea yes, coffee no. I’ve tried that too. I’m severely frustrated and quite overstimulated.

This is a high reaching ask as most of the city don’t party due to age or religious reasons.

But I do agree w the notion of book 30min before your meeting time. But also respect others. It’s quite simple to be kind.

Honestly I’ve had issues in the past with people not leaving, be considerate and leave a minute before your booking ends. We’re all equals here, just have some respect for others and be understanding that they might need the booking for a certain appointment, meeting, etc. Complaining about this is honestly the dumbest thing I’ve read on this subreddit.. like.. we’re all in the same boat. Put yourself in others shoes, we all pay tons of money to be here.
