Getting ready


Before one gets a colonoscopy it takes a day to prepare the system for examination. This means eating no foods all day except drinks, soda, coffee, tea until midnight. After midnight nothing can be consumed not even water.

In addition to this liquid diet I had to drink two liters of a 'cleansing drink'. It basically gives you diarrhea for the next twelve hours. And be prepared because this stuff works. It wont win any taste awards but its weak lemon-lime taste wasn't so awful.
