The Story of My Colorectal Cancer Diagnosis
Ever wonder what it is like to be diagnosed with cancer? In this video I take you through my very first colonoscopy prep, and what it was like to wake up from that colonoscopy and learn that the doctor found a tumor.
In case you missed my last video describing the symptoms I experienced that got me a referral for a colonoscopy, here is the link to bring you up to speed: https://youtu.be/TGHirEbkeCI
My colonoscopy prep for a 1pm colonoscopy:
Noon the day before - 2 tablets of Bisacodyl
2pm - Mix in a pitcher the 14-day supply of powdered laxative (also known as Miralax) with a 64oz. jug of lemon-lime Gatorade and refrigerate
6pm - 2 glasses of water, a 10oz. bottle of Magnesium Citrate, then 2 more glasses of water
5am the day of the procedure - Drink 8 ounces every 15 minutes of the lemon-lime laxative mixture until it's all gone
