First of all, it really isn't that bad.

Where are you getting you have to drink "a gallon of vile liguid in 4 hours?" You cannot eat and you do have to continue with broth, jello, clear fluids, etc, but I know nothing about drinking a gallon of vile liquid?

I had to drink 2 small bottles of pretty nasty stuff, and drink plenty of water, but no gallon of anything.

I had no soreness around the anus. I just relaxed and stayed near the bathroom that day. You won't be able to work on your prep day, because you really need to be close to the bathroom.

You feel absolutely nothing during the procedure or after. It didnt exacerbate my IBS symptoms. My first BM the day after the procedure was a little loose, but after that everything was fine.

It really isn't a big deal. I have been through much worse. The toughest part is drinking those 2 bottles of crap, but other than that, don't worry about it.
