Just miserable

[Cosmojo]

Upper and lower scope in the morning, but I'm struggling because I'm so bloated I look 8 months pregnant, have been unable to stomach much for the past few days. Nervous I'm gonna throw up the prep, having trouble with a bowel movement....I'm under suspecion of major colon stricuring. My GP is actually concerned my bowel might perforate, so I'm super pumped for prep in a few hours. :ybatty:

I wish you good luck and hopefully you feel better after you are done with the tests (me, I usually recover only the day after).

Keep us posted...

I'm sorry you're having such a tough time. I don't even know when my colonoscopy is going to be and I'm already dreading forcing down the prep so I can imagine how you feel. In these situations I try to remember that it is only temporary, you just have to get through the next few days and then it's all over, the prep and the scope are done and you can have a little rest. I know it's not much consolation, but I find it can help me.

Maybe you should plan something nice for yourself later in the week? A little 'well done ' to yourself for getting through this? It can be anything from your favourite movie or game etc? It might give you something to work towards and aim for other than the horrid scope.

Thats a great idea, my boyfriend and I are hoping to go shopping in a nearby designer outlet mall next weekend, and I get to pick what movie we watch tonight
I also got some hard candies and between the terrible prep I gag down I'm gonna let myself have one or 2 of those.
We also live on a pretty tight budget but I'm def getting take out from my favorite restaurant either Tuesday or Wednesday (whenever I feel up to it)
Thanks for the support, I'll let you know how it goes, haha and I'm sure I'll be sitting on here tonight as the Moviprep does its magic

Had my scopes today, in a LOT of pain right now I can feel where they took the biopsies, fever of 100. They said to just rest all day Wednesday as well. Didn't get results because my doctor had to get somewhere else but I have an appointment on Monday to set up treatment plan.
