l've been having a medical issue lately which has pretty much resolved itself. However, since l did go to the doctor and have the appropriate tests, she thought maybe l should have all the age-appropriate tests done too.
So, here's where the graphic may come in...
l'm scheduled to have my first ever colonoscopy tomorrow. l've heard both horror stories, and otherwise from people who have had them - not about the procedure itself, but about the prep. lt's my prep day today - yay!
l haven't eaten, l've drank enough water and Gatorade to sink a ship, and 45 minutes ago, l drank the first sachet of purgative. So far nothing. l'm sitting here within 10 feet of the bathroom on a laptop in case the horror stories are correct.
Just how bad does this get? ls it normal to have no reaction to the initial drink after 45 minutes? Am l going to be up all night as others have said they were? l had myself all worked up about this to the point of feeling sick (before taking anything) and l'm scared, lol. l don't deal well with medical stuff.
