I started my prep last night for my Tuesday colonoscopy. I had to take 3 tbsp's of milk of magnesia yesterday at 6. Within an hour I had a really bad headache and shortly after that the nauseousness began. Then the gas. Then the liquid exedous. How can there be anything left for the colyte?!?!? From the time of the MoM I couldn't eat. UGH. I just feel disgusting. I did find something to take my mind off this whole thing for a while. Puzzles! I bought a puzzle yesterday and I'm almost done! And it keeps me busy. K, just needed to share. No one else is at all understanding right now. They don't know what to say so I just don't share. ARGH!

Wow, I guess every DR. is different in what they expect to clean out the colon. I just had a liquid fast first then the awfull colyte. I went seven minutes after the first glass it worked so well I didn't have to dothe enema in the morning before. I hope you feel better it will all be over soon. My prayers are with you.

Ooo, I have lots of sympathy for you Mags! I had a really bad time with my clonoscopy prep. I hadn't discovered this website and had no idea what to expect!

Chin up! Linz
