Drinking the laxative drink before a colonoscopy...

[DanTheMan]

Before I start... THIS IS NOT A MEDICAL THREAD.

I'm having a colonoscopy tomorrow and I'm having to work my way through 4 litres of klean-prep as we speak. I don't think I have ever tasted a more disgusting drink in my life and even though it's the fourth time I've had to do it in 3 years, it still doesn't get any easier. It tastes like I imagine baby oil to taste and holding my nose isn't helping in the slightest.

I sympathise with anyone who has had to do this before and I demand some sympathy back .

It'll be worse coming out than going in.

my dad done this he said it was like somebody turning the arse tap on full bore!

you have my sympathy.

 

[secretspy]

Like in Ghost Town with Ricky Gervais? lol

Can only imagine what that must be like, it's bad enough being poorly normally. Would hate to have to do that so you get some sympathy from me lol

Is it one of the electrolyte ones? My mother in law had to have them before she had surgery and said (thankfully in minimal detail) that it was hell on toast.

If you have started to drink this, then ina few minutes you will not be able to read the replies, probably as soon as you utter to someone 'you know, i don't think this stuff is wo...' right about then you will explode.

hehe, in a few hours drink water, and watch as it runs out completely clear at the other end, withina few seconds of entry

Yes, it contains sodium/potassium chloride and supposedly vanilla flavouring but that is drowned out by the sheer evilness of everything else.

I refuse any of the large drinks that taste like seawater and always ask for picolax 2 small glasses of orange flavour and then its fire and forget for 12 hours

You have my sympathy but next time ask for it.

 

[mike62]

At least you can do it in the comfort of your own home, it's 10 times worse in hospital, believe me

You may as well pig out as you wont be putting on any weight. A nice curry is sure to keep things hot downstairs.

+ my sympathy

Your profit from this may vary.

Not nice, you have my sympathy hope all goes well!

 

[Maccapacca]

My sympathies, but the pain I was going through before I found out I had ulcerative colitis was worthwhile getting done

 

[Ma'am]

Not nice, you have my sympathy hope all goes well!

This and a good helping of Vaseline to the exit point is vital

 

[Rainmaker]

Been there, done that. I agree with the post above re: Picolax, and can now only offer you my sympathies (from a distance...) and suggest you put the bog roll in the 'fridge.

Have fun.

I can see an episode of Dirty Sanchez forming in my mind.

Depends on the number of cups the OP has.

If the OP can reach out to scat fetish groups, I'm almost positive he can make a killing financially on a situation that would haunt most.
