    Are you clear the day of the colonoscopy?

    I read some stuff about people pooping their pants or still having to go the day of the procedure. I was giving golytely and I have to travel over an hour to the office. I just hope the train doesn't get stuck. Was anyone finished or cleared out when they awoke the day of the procedure?

    Dealing with hunger pains during prep

    How do you guys deal with hunger pains during the colonoscopy prep? I'm afraid my stomach might start growling like mad the day of the colonoscopy. That's what I'm most afraid of. Also what might cause churning in the Lower abdomen? I get that a lot when eating certain foods.
