I'm scheduled for a colonoscopy in a few weeks, and I'm feeling pretty nervous. I will be sedated during the procedure, so I think I will deal okay, but I am concerned about the prep. I am interested in hearing about people with IBS share their experiences with the prep and the actual procedure. Did it exasperate your IBS symptoms?

Also, what have you found to make the gallon of liquid required for the prep go down easier? I have no idea how I am going to drink a gallon of vile liquid in 4 hours. I don't think I could drink a gallon of plain water in that amount of time.

What's the best remedy to prevent soreness around the anus from going to the bathroom so much during the prep?

I really appreciate insights from those of you have been through this procedure.

Thanks!
