<p>Bumping this thread up.</p>

<p>I just had my third colonoscopy, this time with a different prep. Thankfully I didn’t have to swallow eight thousand gallons of that awful stuff. This prep consisted simply of five Dulcolax pills at 4:00 PM, followed by a 10-ounce bottle of that awful citric of magnesia stuff at 5:00 PM. Things started happening at around 6:00 PM. It was very easy to ingest all that, but truth be told I was up all night. My last “event” occurred at 2:30 AM. I was afraid it would never stop.</p>

<p>The doc praised my prepping and I don’t have to do this again for five years.</p>

<p>Last prep I did consisted of taking pills and any liquid of my choice.</p>

<p>No drinking anything disgusting at all.</p>

<p>The drawback was you have to eventually take 32 of the darn pills over a few hours.</p>

<p>Anyway, worked well, did the job. </p>

<p>Not again for 10 years…</p>
