| Nothing to add other than prayers for your procedure. I have not had one, time to get it scheduled

Location: The South | Just make sure you stay hydrated. See if you can find a Gatorade flavor that doesn't have red or blue dye and drink that. You'll be losing a lot of electrolytes and fluid and that can aggravate cardiac problems. Just drink plenty! I've had one, the prep is no fun but at least you're knocked out for the procedure. Good luck! |

| The new prep procedures are so much better and easier than just a few years ago. Just make sure that you get cleaned out well if they cannot do the procedure. I have had several and they get easier each time because of easier prep. We use Beaudreau's Butt Paste in our neck of the woods. |

Glad its over for you, I had one done Feb or March of 2014, I had it done when I was super sick in the hospital and trying to find out what the heck was wrong with me, so dont remember to much, but I know it was a peice of cake. |
