I'm not working right now, but I plan on taking the whole two days off. I don't eat any thing but jello and Italian ice/sorbet.
Hey, any kid would kill to have jello and Italian ice for breakfast, right, lol?
I use Su-Prep, which are small bottles. Drink one quick, and then drink gatorade or whatever the rest of the time. Still get bloated and want to hurl tho. But it's better than the others I've tried . that'sg in there. I look forward to the day after, not dread the day of.
If you're capable of holding down a job- you're probably not doing to bad. I've seen reports that the incidence of cancer for all this stuff is alot lower than people think.
I'll do it lol yeah it tastes horrible. But I gotta do what I gotta do. I don't want the doc to find a taco or peperoni when he's all up there.
But tomorrow is Cinco de Mayo, so...!!![]()
Eric, I think I told you already that I'm just a couple years younger than you and also have Ulcerative Colitis. Though it totally sucks, especially with your temperament, I just know you're totally gonna get the better of this! Sending you a PM about the prep (done 5), so I hope your inbox isn't full. If you ever come out to LA, I so wanna take you to Roscoe's Chicken And Waffles; I've celebrated a couple birthdays there, and you are right about it being a critical destination for any fried chicken or waffle connoisseur
!
That's what the gave me the suprep bowel prep kit. Last time I had to drink a lot more. I'm glad it isn't as much. The doc played the cancer card to me. That's what freaked me out a little.
I'm thinking of jokes to tell the doctor. The whole "buy me dinner" one is played out.
I'm thinking of looking straight in his eyes and say... You know if we were in prison according to their inmate laws we'd be officially married after this.
Or..
This whole deal would be a lot easier if you would sing unchained melody to me.. You know.. During..
Good luck Eric, try and drink it all, a friend at work didn't finish his, doc got 2/3 of the way up and couldn't finish, he has to have it done again this week. Also the last time I had it done the nurse told me a little vodka added to it was ok. Just not too much, when the reverse volcano starts erupting, you want to be able to make it to the toilet without stumbling around LOL.
Good luck Eric! I understand about hospitals. Had a run in with colon cancer in 04. I hated the stay in the hospital, hated the chemo even worse. But I survived. I'm in your corner, we all are.
Roger that! I schedule mine for just after noon- same time as my regular nap.
( You hanging tough there Oplholik?)
