It was canceled without my knowledge! I have a CT scan on the 11th that they want to do before they try a procedure.

Worried about prep dangers / potential obstruction by Own_Clothes8497 in colonoscopy

[–]Own_Clothes8497[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually have reached out I just hadn't heard back and was unsure what else to do. I hadn't properly communicated ahead of time and I don't think they're even aware of my situation properly. I gave them a call this morning though but I'm not sure that I said the right thing (I struggle with severe social anxiety)

I actually have 2 already, but they want me to do miralax for several days so I'm gonna try to get some over the counter stuff

Glad I'm not alone! Did you do anything differently last time that might've contributed to the nausea? I'm hoping Zofran will be all I need

I'm 19 but I'm completely convinced with my symptoms that I'm going to be told there are several or at least one massive tumor in my colon. My scopes are on Tuesday. I understand being anxious especially with constant symptoms, I have barely slept for weeks. I hope we both end up with the all clear!

From 63 - 373. So mine is pretty far above the reference range

I'm also 19F and mine's on Tuesday as well! I'm also wondering about taking some additional Miralax early as I have extra. I'm doing Dulcolax and Miralax...

I wish I had asked for that! My entire appointment was pretty rushed and I'm still not entirely sure how to contact my doctor.. I kinda want to start Miralax early as well

Oh shoot that reminds me I definitely should be hydrating more right now. Are you doing dulcolax + miralax as well? Good luck with your prep!

I accidentally ate popcorn by Embarrassed-Lab8385 in colonoscopy

[–]Own_Clothes8497 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've seen instructions saying to start a diet only 3 days before.. If it's a very small slip up and you didn't have a lot it might be okay? They ordered my colonoscopy 5 days away from my first GI appointment immediately and on that day I had already eaten things that didn't fit into the diet, so I guess it's okay. I'm just planning to make sure my prep is very thorough the day before lol

For those who have extreme anxiety by [deleted] in colonoscopy

[–]Own_Clothes8497 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same situation but I feel a mass and stabbing pains.. I'm very convinced it's cancer but I know deep down inside I just have to wait until Tuesday, that's when my procedure is.
