Hi I'm am having a colonoscopy Thursday has anyone had Klean- prep and any problems with it I had had picolax before but it has lactose in it I have a bad reaction to lactose it Seems an awful lot to drink in an hour thank you not looking forward to it Jakki x
Hello, I had Picolax too and was ok with it, but found the prep to be the worst part, I was worried like you, but it was fine and I had no real pain, with sedation I was relaxed and watched it all on the screen, I only felt very slight discomfort except it was more in my stomach area, but the staff were so lovelly and I worried for nothing, Good luck, try to stay calm and it will be easier .
HI Jane thank you for replying yes I think that is going to be the worst part it does not sound nice at all it's nice to hear your experience was a positive one and all went well thank you jakki x
Hi, I had taken klean prep .... the prep wasn't the best and the drinking in an hour does seem much but I somehow managed. I had to take a sachet st 10am, one at 11, one at 6pmand one at 7pm. The evening ones where worse but to be honest I expected it to be much much worse. Good lick
Good luck I mean lol
Thank you Ella for getting back to me my, doses are 12 2 4 and 6 I'll be glad when four is here ha I hate taking medicine especially when you know what's coming thank you Jakki x
To be fair I really thought it would be much worse. Got a few cramps but then just stayed on the loo lol by 10.30pm I was done and managed to sleep The night so it's not as bad as u r imagining .... Not fun but ul get through it ok 😄
HI Ella I just wanted to say I got through the Klean prep day it was hard drinking all that water but your right it wasn't half as bad as I thought it was going to be I was dreading it.
I didn't have much discomfort just lots of wind not sure if that's the stuff or the flat fizzy I sipped, thank you again Jakki x
Good luck for tomorrow 😄 I'm sure that will be fine too
Hi Ella home after my colonoscopy today all went well I can honestly say I worried for nothing a little discomfort several biopsies and have mild diviticulitus but nothing to get stressed about the worst part was the cannula in the back of the hand it obviously didn't go In right so got a swelling and bruising that is more uncomfortable than the whole prep and colonoscopy he did comment I had a nice clean clean bowel I did tell him that stuff was vile ha but I am home eaten which is the best part and apart from my hand I am fine thank you for your replies Jakki x
Super great news 😄 So happy for u. Even I was left with a swollen hand cos of canula. They decided a student should try it out first time on me . Lol that passed too. Good luck for the biopsies, they took loads for me too and all was clear. In 5 yrs il b stressing again haha
Thank you Ella glad all good news for you in five years they may have a better method ha well be stressing with that yes fx mine will be to thank you lovely talking to your xx 😀
