It's due to UC that I'm having this.
The taps are now fully open, I'm hoping that I don't need to drink all of it for it to work.
how are you getting on with uc ?
ive been told i have this also and will find out for certain next saturday when i have my colonoscopy.
had 2 really bad time's with it and once i passed out and awoke to find paramedics over me.
not a very nice thing to have to be honest.

Is this at all similar to a sigmoidoscopy?
google agent picolax for lols
Sad to say I did this and clicked on a blog. It has had me in stitches poor man mistook the date of the procedure. Great read.
Oh OP from what I have read I would invest in some decent moist toilette tissue the type used by sensitive females as you will need it.
Good luck.

Some of the quotes he comes out with are great. Some one should copy/link it onto this thread.
It's gash stuff, I couldn't bring myself to finish the 3rd thing you need to take in the morning. I was crapping myself that I was going to crap myself on the way to the hospital. Everything went better than expected though.

He's a bit **** in my experience, seems to be steroids, steroids, steroids with him although I suppose there's not an awful lot out there for UC that actually works consistently from person to person. I've not been taking any medication now for over a year as Asacol only made me worse and steroids aren't a long term option, I didn't want to take azathioprine either as I didn't like the sound of the side effects.
You have my sympathy mate. I had the same 2 years ago. The procedure itself isn't too bad - it sounds worse than it is.
The kleen prep is absolutely rotten - I have never felt so sick in my life! I found that holding my nose helped but I only discovered that towards the end.
Once it started to work there was no holding back - you literally can't control yourself!
You'll be fine - good luck with the test.
