Gravity, of course. It runs downhill.

Free range chicken broth. I'm on a clear liquid diet today.

Colonoscopy?

Colonoscopy?

Bingo. At least I get some a good drug dose out of it. It's almost worth it.

that's disappointingly pedestrian.

Indeed. It was pretty disappointing all around. And it's still around 22 hours before I can eat anything solid again. Between that and the crap I have to start taking (now unfortunately), today is going to be a very disappointing day.

The sodium picosulphate is pretty nasty

Our chief of gastro had the med students try a few glasses to get an understanding of how terrible it is

Remind me to never have a camera shoved up my ass.

I'm about to start. I have a HalfLytely & Bisacodyl tablets Bowel Prop Kit. Here are the instructions. I've put them in Spoiler tags so that one doesn't have to see it if it's TMI.

1. Take bisocodyl tablets with water.
   
2. Mix HalfLytely solution and refrigerate. HalfLytely is PEG-3350, sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate and potassium chloride.
   
3. Wait for a bowel movement. After a bowel movement occurs (usually in 1-6 hours) begin to drink the solution. Even if a bowel movement does not occur within 6 hours, begin to drink the solution.
   
4. Drink all the solution. Drink 1 (8 oz) glass of solution every 10 minutes until solution is gone. A watery bowel movement should begin in approximately 1 hour. You will continue to have loose bowel movements for about 1 to 2 hours after finishing. I didn't measure it but it looks like it makes about 1 liter. I'll measure it later, when I'm done. I chose the orange flavoring. Lemon-lime and cherry are also options.
   

I made the solution first, to give it a better chance to get cold. Here goes with the Bisacodyl tablets. Don't worry, there will be no more "progress" reports.

It beats the hell out of getting colon cancer. This is my second full colonoscopy. The doctor found and removed a pre-cancerous polyp the last time. So, while I might bitch a bit about it, I'll gladly have the necessary regular checks for more.

Yeah the screening program is quite good.

Yay, I can eat solid food again. Chinese food tonight.

This is actually a little late. Meant to post this from a few this weekend. For mcbobble.

made a little eggplant parmesan for dinner

A liquid strawberry yogurt, a pear and a cereal bar! Healthy mid morning snack!

Left over cold pepperoni and sausage pizza. Yum! Of course, the birds think so too, so I have to give them the crusts.

One of my favorites. When cold, I like to bathe it in tabasco.

The birds get mad at me when I give them hot sauce.
