Good for you Kelly!! Feeling a little better today? I have a few questions for you seeing that you are a pro now . I am going friday for a colonscopy.but first have to travel. My times were the same as yours but was changed to 8:30 am fri.instead of 2:15pm fri. I am starting the Fleet prep tomorrow morning around 7:00am,hoping that it takes effect right away,(fingers crossed) as I am travelling 3 hrs(maybe a little longer depending on how many stops I need to make!!)to a hotel;in the afternoon. Then doing the next Fleet prep around 7:30 pm -8:00 pm. Have to be a the hospital,7:30 am fri. Q's are what did you mix with your fleet drink,? I was thinking of using gingerale or 7-up(stirred of course).I will (hopefully)be drinking gatortade ice (its clear) and Kool-aid sport jammers (extra electrolytes) and tea and chicken broth. Also tomorrow maybe jello.( I remember when I used Colyte for a prep I didn't drink anything at all.) Did you bleed quite a bit from the removal of polyps?, how long did it take you to wake up? I think thats all I have to ask for now maybe something else will come to mind later. Did you finally eat something? I think I'll bring with me a plain bagel or some bread and peanut butter to eat on the way home. Take care Sue
