I sense the drugs are making you feel real good so go with it.  Now that the test is done life is good again.  cool

My doctor uses a Miralax and Gatorade  prep...so much easier to deal with as you may have found out.

After the fact I am going to post a link for anyone facing the prep - provided by the CCA (Colon Cancer Alliance)

Today is your day to rest and let the medication wear off.

Hope your news was good.

Hugs,

Kitt

Hello All, I happened to find this page while researching Anxiety. Just wanted to introduce myself and not be just a creepy voyeur lol!!

I love the support you give eachother and that you feel free to express how you are feeling. Sometimes that in itself causes so much anxiety!

I clicked on the Colonoscopy link because I too am due for one and my anxiety has held me back.. thanks for sharing your experience Hazel. You helped me even tho you didn't even know who I was!!

God Bless!! smilewinkgrin
