Omsghssssss are yall doctors making yall drink this stuff the night before your surgery? This is soooosoooosoo gross!!!!!!!!! Colon will be well clean though!!!!

Just guzzle it down; try not to stop. Get through that cringing "shudder" you'll likely do :-). It'll be over in a few minutes. Also, rinse out your mouth immediately afterwards and have a thorat lozenge nearby to suck on, to kill that yucky taste in your mouth. [MgCitrate is gross...but usually effective!]

Your doc is just trying to clean out your intestines a bit before he/she operates. Some docs Rx it; others, don't. Enjoy...the eventual weight loss. Keep that in mind. :-) Good luck.

Get it very cold, use a straw, hold your breath and drink as fast as you can!

FYI: My husband has to take this before his colon cancer surgery on Friday, but throat lozenges and anything else is off limits...ask your surgeon if they are ok....Good luck with your surgeries!
