Sup pals. A few people have asked me about the prep (diacol pills as opposed to revolting liquid solution). I've been fasting all day (clear liquid only). Took 4 pills at 5, and just had my second dose as 5.15 (I'm to have 4 pills = 1 dose) every fifteen minutes until I've completed 5 doses. So far so good, much easier than the prep drink. Havn't gone to the loo yet but I suspect that will come in due time haha.

will keep you posted.
 
never heard of that prep, sounds a lot easier than drinking nasty stuff!
 
well I've only ever had one colonoscopy before, tomorrow will be my 2nd, the first time I had to drink that seedy prep, this has been so much easier, apart from having a sore bum, but other than that pretty easy, I thought I was clever by not eating much yesterday (I had fortisip nutritional drinks instead, and some chicken for dinner). Already all clear and ready for the procedure. Just hungry as a mofo, that's probably my only complaint
 
Cheers, waitin in day surgery now, the pills were way better than the drink prep, pretty easy, been smooth sailing so far, just fricking hungry, will post how the scope goes. Feeling optimistic
