The rest of the prep begins soon. Pray for my septic system. Not going to be a fun night.
Just downed a 10 ounce bottle of magnesium citrate
- Thread starter runkpanole
- Start date
Just did one this past Thursday. Good times. Clear yellow or gtfo.
Thoughts and prayers. It won’t be long now.
Is that what they fueled the car with in Back to the Future?
I just did my prep last night and procedure today. No polyps, so I don't have to deal with that crap for another 10! Goodspeed, my friend!
I ventured outside of the 100mg thread for 5 minutes and honestly reading the tea-leaves in your toilet would be more interesting than some of the takes on this board.
I love being on the opposite end of this process
It has always been 50 but I hear 45 now if family history of polyps. I'm not a doctor.
I was lucky enough to qualify for a 5 year return engagement. Doc loves my ass.

The taste of the drink is the worst, but peeing out the bunghole is a pretty close second. And goes on seemingly FOREVER.
But there’s something satisfying about being empty.
The fasting was the worst part to me.
I seem to recall from other colonoscopy prep threads (jesus we are an old lot here) there have been advancements in this area, where it isn't so bad. For me, it tasted like drinking sea water. I dumped a bunch of crystal light in there to try to mask the flavor but it was just sea water with crystal light in it. The worst part was it was late and for the last bit of it I mistakenly put red flavored powder in there, where the prep instructions say not to do that because it might make things look bloody. Thank god they said it was okay and I didn't have to do it all over again.
Reminds me of a trip to South America. I ate some street food in Colombia and didn’t shit solid for 2 weeks. No amount of OTC anything would contend with it. Feel like my poop chute had the ultimate colonic.
Gotta add crystal light to it. And butt peeing is insane. Like does my sphincter turn into a penis hole?
The fasting is killing me.
As for age, I’ll be 44 next month. This part of life has come early for me.
Jimmy I’d expect this sort of thing from Huey. But for gods sake you’re a veteran.
Once I bought a container of mountain laurel bath salts at a visit to the spa at the homestead. So this one day I decided to take a nice soak at home. So I dumped like half the bottle in the tub.
For the rest of the night every step I took I sounded like the goddamn tuba player in John Philip souza’s marching band. I’m like wtf?! So I looked at the label of this thing and ingredient number one was mag sulfate.

For shits and giggles you should have eaten a can of corn for breakfast.
That would be shits, but not giggles
Doesn't kick in for like 6 hours.
Feel free to go to the grocery store or any other place until then.

My first colonoscopy, I had an angry Asian doctor. I felt like I was raped. CSB
Seriously though, get it done HBOTer's. It really is not that bad.
