Hi Everyone,
I got my "pack" in the post today for my colonoscopy prep next Tues 1st July. Have just opened it and got a shock. Last year I had Fleet and the year before too.
BIG changes this year! Ready?
7 days prior to appointment stop taking immodium, codeine phosphate, lomotil, iron tablets or fybogel.
2 days prior commence low residue diet of which they have provided a very specific list.
Day before appointment. Have good breakfast of allowed foods and after this do not eat any more solid food although clear jelly and icecream are allowed as well as clear fluids including carbonated drinks, tea and coffee.
At TEN AM take FOUR senna tablets supplied.
At TWO PM dissolve full sachet of Picolax in 500mls water and drink over 10 -20mins
Try to drink at least 1000mls of clear fluid before SIX PM
At SIX PM dissolve full sachet of Kleen Prep in 1000mls water and drink over the next hour.
THEN try and drink a further 1000mls clear fluids before bed.
Morning of appointment fluids only.
I am getting the impression they have had problems with guts not being clear enough but I am feeling this is a bit on the heavy side for a clear out!!
Am stunned.
