final weigh in
177.5 pounds. 6 pounds in about 36 hours. Thought I’d be more full of it.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.

They need to purge higher up to get that.

Since you’re out of it, I have this strong urge to give you a line of crap but I just can’t.
I got to watch the wife go through it due to GI issues. It’s not fun. I hope it goes well for you today and they figure it out.

Had my experience with a bowel prep back in ’89 or so.
Phenolpthaline (since abandoned due to carcinogenicity), magnesium citrate and a suppository (“Leave in rectum as long as it is comfortable” — are you kidding me?) were the rule of the day and it took about 2 days for things to settle down again.
The newer osmotic preps (Golytely/Nulytely) suck, but they don’t cause nearly as much spasm and wear off much faster.
Versed and fentanyl were great when I was in training but Propafol (“milk of amnesia”) has largely replaced it. One of my patients told me he was waiting to be put back into the endoscopy suite and the next thing he knew he was standing in the shopping mall with his wife two hours later.
Sorry to read about your problems, but it sounds like you have some good physicians on the case.
Hang in there.

Man, I got ya beat, there. I had swollen feet (well, all the way up to the knees) and they put me on a diuretic. Some hours later (I’m sure one or two of you can appreciate this, but not many more) when I could access a toilet, I let loose like I never had. I lost about 8lb that day.

I’m curious – how many trips to the soft serve station did you make? An average of a pound per hour..
February 20th, 2012 at 5:09 pm
an average of a pound per six hours*

this is just the sort of thing that keeps me coming back to the intertoobs again and again.

“Thought I’d be more full of it. ”
Nawp. Not going there. Too easy.

“Thought I’d be more full of it.” If you were, you’d be on Capital Hill. : )
