OK Tuesday is the long awaited ileoscopy. I do not have to do clears until that day 6 hours prior to it.
BUT with the stoma being almost closed and me being so weak, I am thinking do I do the clears all day tomorrow. or just drink water and sleep all day? but then I won't tomorrow night.
OR do I do as I have been doing. Seems like if I do Orange juice, coffee, and a protein shake, then go for a walk and do glasses of water lots of them. THEN around 3 have some scrambled egg and a cracker, then LOTS more water. Then a yogurt. THen ToNS more water. Then at night limit myself to ONE splenda ice cup (not the many I have been having) then I get all cleared out with several gushes of diarrhea, then I would be able to sleep and set to go for Tuesday. ONE WOULD THINK!
Who knows. BUT I will be knocked out and get very hungry by the end of the day I am sure. I don't want a low blood sugar crash. I am really going to have to think this through. There is no prep other than just clears 6 hours prior and no liquid 2 hours prior.
I don't want to show up with an induced diarrhea as a scope with that would be a mess! Even the induced diarrheas I have to do to get the poop to move out of this strictured stoma is weird. There is nothing then this HUGE gush. But that is the way stoma strictures are. Auugh!
I Just want this to be over and some plan worked out as I cannot go on like this. If not at where I go then maybe one of the two places in NYC. They seem very ready to help. Rosemary
