    Better tasting prep
    There is another post going around asking what you want for Christmas, and i thought about asking for someone to invent a better way to prep for the colonoscopy. It is horrible. Makes me sick. Hope you get thru it and this time tommorrow it will all be over.

    you're funny
    Hi Nana,

    You're funny- did you really drink your bowel prep from a wine glass?!
    It's definitely pretty gross. I will be praying for you for the colonoscopy to go well and, of course, for good results!
    Take care!

    I did that too!
    I put my magnesium citrate stuff in a wine glass last year. Didn't help but I tried to imagine it was wine. I have to do this in a month, so I feel for you and will keep you in my prayers!

    Worth the trouble!
    It's a yucky process, but it's worth the trouble to hear the doctor say, "All clear!" I'm delighted with your news!

    Three years
    My ONC at one time said a year, but the doctor today told me that I would not need one for three years.

    PS, I did drink the nasty stuff but my husband had to stand by me for the last three glasses and make me drink, lol.....which I drank every 5 minutes. I had to get it down by 7 but started an hour late.
