I promise you, nothing can prepare you for how wild colonoscopy prep is. I have to get one every three years and somehow I memory hole this every time.
And yet…it’s worth it! If you think there’s ANYTHING off about your GI tract mention it to your doctor. Destigmatize this shit!

Good luck with yours! 🫂
"But insurance won't cover it."
Fine, that's what my FSA is for! GIMME PILLS NEXT TIME!
(And because of issues, I have to get mine every 7 years.)
My mom died of colon cancer 21 years ago, at age 63. After her death, some of her closest friends shared that she’d been feeling ill for months before she finally went to the doctor. By then, the cancer had spread to most of her major organs. If only she’d had regular colonoscopies… 😓💔
At least you'll have the best place to recover!
