The prep is not fun, but what was great for me is that I had a bed side commode toilet and just kept in the living room and just stayed up all night there watching the Bachelorette. Warning, do not drink the prep over your laptop keyboard as it killed mine. I was so bored typing on the colon talk board, that I actually ruined my new lap top so please be careful. Do not eat orange jellow, it shows up in the photos they take.
Pros: I lost 5 pd. The best meal is after the prep
Cons: You go #2 all night long. You get tired but having a commode helped. Your ass starts to hurt so wipe with gentle wipes.
I was happy to found out the polyp they took out was benign. I had to fight to get one done because I was 38 at the time. My mom was DX in 2017. They really need to make the new age 40 not 50!!
The best thing to do, is to just do it! I also had a mammogram last week. Early detection is best! XOXO
Whoever said the prep was the worst part I would say you’re correct. Lol. My procedure is at 7 tomorrow. I’m looking forward to getting this out of the way, having a big meal, then going to sleep!

I can honestly say you all are right, the worst part about the entire process is the prep. Lol.
I want to say thank you to everyone who gave me nice and encouraging words. You guys rock! Really made me feel better about this entire process.
