    Colonoscopy
    Good for you! Congrats! Just wondering, when was your last colonoscopy? Does the schedule change for us? I know the recommended is once at age 50 and then every 10 yrs.

    I hope you found a fun way to celebrate!

    Thanks! My last colonoscopy and first one was March 2011. Didn't have it until I was 58 - long overdue. It was done while I was in the hospital - actually two days after biopsy. 

    Haven't decided how I'll celebrate yet.

    I've always done the Miralax/Gatorade/Dulcolax prep for my colonoscopies (of which I believe I've had 3 or 4) and it's not so bad.  It's no fun, but not bad.  I hope your scope shows no problems!

    I'm sure it will be a blast! If we can get through this treatment, a colonoscopy won't be so bad... will report back when it's over. Waiting to hear when it will be scheduled. No hurry, though...

    Another dr appt finished

    Saw colorectal dr today. He said everything was fine. I need to have a colonoscopy in a few weeks. He wants to make sure everything is still ok. Haven't had a post treatment colonoscopy so kind of figured it was time. I'll have a different poop cocktail this time. Instead of Golightly (wrong name for that stuff) I get to have the miralax gatorade mix plus ducolax. I can hardly wait...

    That is what I Used

    My colorectal surgeon had me do the over the counter routine similar to you.  It worked REAL well...total cleanout.  I had a colonscopy in 2011.
