After drinking the blue Gatorade for two preps I can’t drink it any other time *shudder*. First colonoscopy and prep weren’t too bad. The last one however were a real pain on multiple levels. Hopefully everything goes smoothly and you get all the information you need. Sushi is too cute in the background.
So that's me with the green Gatorade, the Lemon/Lime.......can't think about it much lol
Oh yeah I can relate. Colon prep and my ibs do not agree, period. The pain is real unfortunately. I hope your colonoscopy went smoothly and that you get answers you need.
Yes! Prep while have IBD, Crohn's, colitis, rectal issues ect. is NOT FUN.
good luck with that with your preparation
like u are so true to be the process...I hold my clear bag at all time when my BM splashed....
That’s for the information x
Thank you for watching💚👍😃
I just did this last week. It was this first time I had this done and it was easier this time with a stoma. Used Miralax and Gatorade Ice. Yes, had IV sedation. In Australia you can be awake for it. I did not use a large bag, I just emptied every hour till bedtime. I took the Pills first and then started drinking the Gatorade.
First time with a stoma I mean.
Yes, with it being my first prep with a Stoma as well it definitely was different but much better to what I've previously experienced.
All the best
👍👍💚💚😃😃
Oh my goodness 😳 My 🎩 goes off to you!
I've only done one colonoscopy in my life and the prep was very... interesting. I had to eliminate all fibre from my diet a week before (apart from drinking the laxative the night before) and I can definitely say that I've never 🚶♀️ 💨 so much in my life 🙈
Praying for the colonoscopy to go well and for good news 🙏🏻
Lol peoples first prep is always one to remember. And having Crohn's, I've used the bathroom 10+ times on a bad flare day. I stopped counting at 10 times......so I'm no stranger to the bathroom lol
What's it like to have an enormous worm coming out of your tummy tum yum? Hang in there Paul your doing great!
So it's definitely different haha
Not a bad thing at all, I prefer this to death lol
That looks like a sleeve for peopl who irrigate their colon daily and then don't have output the rest of the day so they can just put a small closed bag or pouch over it.
That is exactly what it is! It's the Irrigation Sleeve, and was very helpful.
When did my scope they had 2 dulcolax at noon then start that mirilax split in a half. Half in pm and half in early am. I did vitamin water. My mistake was using the sugar free. Got electrolytes but my blood sugar plummeted
Ahhhh yeah I can imagine that the blood sugar going down can't feel great lol
Lesson learned lol
Did you only have to do one bottle of miralax? My mom’s doctor is making her take 4 of those bottles and I’m wondering if that’s too much prep.
Omg all that miralax XD yuuum !
Poor Paul 🤣
❤❤
💚💚💚
Blue Gatorade is my favourite, we only have 16.9 oz…. I hope everything went well….
Thank you! Blue didn't take bad but red is still the preferred one.
The Cool Blue tastes like Fruit Roll Ups, good stuff!
What is the name of the extra large bag?
❤❤❤
💚👍😃

Hubby is getting a colonoscopy on December 1. He had it before but he's doing the maralax prep. I think I'm stay under age 45. I won't die, I just won't get older. 😛. But it helped watching this. Thanks.
I hope everything went well! Sorry we are catching up with comments.
Thank you for sharing
For your colonoscopy do you get put under anesthesia like people who have it done via their rectum?
Yes, I did last week!
Yes! I don't want to see that scope slowly going deeper and deeper through my abdomen lol
It's not painful obviously, but it's probably not comfortable either.
Where do you get the bigger bag? What is the bag called?
My ostomy nurse got it for me. Irrigation sleeve ostomy bag
What kind of bag is the large bag you used during colon prep? Do you have the name of the company and the name of the bag? Thank you
So it's from Coloplast, it's a Irrigation Sleeve Bag.
You can find them on Amazon.
They can be washed out and disinfected and reused if need be.
Well done, guys! Hope the colonoscopy gave you some answers xxxxx
Thanks Penelope for the loving comment
I had a illiostomy and colonsopy
How long did you have them for?
That prolapse looks pretty significant doesn't it? You poor thing! 😞
It gets pretty dam long lol
As long as it doesn't cause any issues with output and no severe abdominal pain then they don't really do much for it.
Wear are you guys
You are so smart you and Jenny y'all study everything well you know so much about a colonoscopy in your body I wish you well and I wish the best for the test I have never liked colonoscopy and I don't have Crohn's disease and I wish you the best and I will pray for you every night before I go to bed you and Janice are so sweet sweet people and I do wish all the best I love these videos they have really taught me a lot about your situation Genesis situation it's just amazing to me keep it up keep sharing and I wish you the best and yes I will pray for you tonight that everything will turn out okay and the test be good thank you Paul thank you Janice
Thank you so much for the kind words and the love and support. We greatly appreciate it.😃👍💚💚💚
I've had to call my Dr twice now because I wasn't able to complete the prep. Extreme nausea with lovely vomiting of prep hours after drinking just a 3rd. Anyone else unable to tolerate polywhatsit glycol?
I was given Golytly in hospital, unable to tolerate so enemas all night. Then, given for prep in August. Fail. Now, here's the "insanity".... Given Myralax prep, which is polywhatsit glycol, and surprise, nausea and vomiting with anti nausea pill on board.
OMG.
Anyone else have problem?
And, yes, they've now given me that other prep for December scheduled 3rd try. It's kinda a sulfa based produce. I'm allergic to a type of sulfa drug. The two aren't the same type of sulfa, soooo. Oh, dear.
Wow, just wow. I'm so sorry your going through all of that. I really hope you were able to complete the prep for the December scope.
Maybe you have to just drink it from the morning time, like super small amount just all day?
But maybe your body just straight hates it lol
I used Plenvu, it's the p-whatever-glycol plus a ton of electrolytes to prevent an imbalance, which can cause nausea. More electrolytes than Gatorade. I also got a prescription for Zofran, since I know I tend to get nauseous easily. Being super-hydrated a few days before the prep helps too, because you lose more fluid on prep day than you can drink. It has to already be built up in your tissues. I drank like a gallon or more of water and Liquid IV when I started the low fiber diet 3 days before the prep.
It wasn't pleasant but I was surprised I didn't puke. I usually couldn't stomach Miralax when I was taking it for my IBS.
