Just sayin'. It's bad enough we have cancer... you'd think they'd take a little pity on us when it comes to bowel prep.

    Surgery prep
    Actually i just picked up the nulytely jug in prep for my resection next week. I know an intense prep is necessary, but just the sight of the jug makes me angry. When i drink it i follow each 8oz glass with a bite of a lime wedge. Close my eyes and it's 'almost' like a really cheap tequilla shot from my college years.

    That's the spirit! Good luck with the resection!
