colonoscopy, anyone?

I am slated to start drinking the poison in an hour or so. I am worried that I wil not be able to drink it all since I have the band.

Anyone having one since the band wil know what the above means. Anyone?

Thanks.

Hi - I had my first colonoscopy a few days after Christmas. It's liquid, so it flows right through the band, no problem. You'll just be sick of the stuff towards the end of the gallon.

I guess i thought it was thick and might prove to be an issue.

I am so nervous. Ugh!

My doctor told me that I could half everything since we have a smaller intake than most adults. You might ask!

I had mine before being banded. I held my nose each time I had to drink that stuff. Even the thought of it now... blah! I don't remember it being extremly thick. But I drank it quickly so it was kind of like chugging each time. I don't think we can do that with the band though.

Good Luck,
