One thing I do remember after the test was for a few days I was passing flaky/squigly like stuff. I think the colonoscopy kinda cleans ya out and gets everything up there all loose and stuff. It wasn't painful at all and didn't make my IBS worse in the least bit. If anything just having the piece of mind that you had it and it comes back fine is enough to make your IBS better(since you don't have that anxiety of worrying something's wrong!).

I didn't do all 3 glasses required of the phosphate soda.Just couldn't get the 3rd one down and I ended up cleaned out so if you can't get it all down, don't worry you'll still probably be cleaned out. It's yucky stuff as everyone has said. One tip my coworker gave me was to drink it with a straw and put the straw way back at the back of your throat and you really don't taste it.

Good luck! Really try to go through with it. You'll really feel better knowing everything is ok.
