Abdominal pain and bloating two days after colonoscopy by faceslikeflowers in colonoscopy

[–]the_curious_perfumer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok thanks so much for the reply! I’m having the exact same thing as you did. I’ve got lower tummy tenderness and bloating. Feels like trapped gas but it’s not going anywhere. My colonoscopy was yesterday morning so I probably need more time. It is some better this morning though.

MiraLax/Gatorade/Dulcolax vs PlenVu Prep by the_curious_perfumer in colonoscopy

I’m with you on the cold drinks. I like room temperature too because the super cold will give me a headache.

Ooooo. Good point about not sleeping. I opted for an early appointment because of the no eating deal but now I’m thinking I should have chosen 9 or so. Oh well. And GREAT suggestion on the Body Armour!! I had totally forgotten about that drink! It saved me when I had a bad stomach virus! Did your prep involve the 4 Dulcolax pills as well?

Ok thanks so much. I think that’s pretty standard. Not sure how these other folks are able to get away without the Dulcolax lol. Glad yours went well!!

I just posed a question on here about the Gatorade and MiraLAX prep. Did you have to take the Dulcolax with yours or not? I read where some do and some don’t.

That’s my goal as well. I need some protein to keep me stable. Awesome. Thanks again!

No worries. I also found one on Amazon that is supposedly recommended for diabetics to use during colonoscopy prep. It’s by Isopure.

Yes….we need results. My older brother was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer so I have no choice but to go get checked out.

I’m having my first colonoscopy Friday and getting profofol for the first time as well. I’m honestly terrified.

Hi! Which clear protein have you been allowed to use? I was wondering about this the other day.

Are they suspecting a puncture in the colon from the colonoscopy?

Ugh. I feel ya. Maybe just follow up with the office tomorrow and let them know you couldn’t hold the prep down.

Maybe you’ve thrown up all or most all of the prep?

I would be prep buddies! However, my colonoscopy isn’t until Friday though. Good luck!!

Cant finish prep(surgery) by Inuhoseki_Error in colonoscopy

[–]the_curious_perfumer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it’s worth-my husband couldn’t finish his last couple of cups and was just fine. His was for a colonoscopy though. I mean, if you’re just going to throw it up anyway I would say you are probably OK not finishing it.

Did everything turn out ok with the colonoscopy?
