Colonoscopy... Woohoo!!

[EricHill78]

Yeah real exciting lol. Got one scheduled for Monday. They say Sunday I'm on a liquid diet. Only chicken broth and water. I'm going to hate Sunday. Anyways do you think it'll be alright to use snus Sunday? I don't know if the snus juice will throw off the test.

[CoderGuy]

That sux to be sure. Snus juice is liquid. What do they say about tobacco/nicotine use before the procedure?

I would ask a doctor. Is anyone here a doctor?

What doctor is going to admit that it's OK to use tobacco? I don't care what kind of procedure you are going to have, they will all tell you to refrain from using tobacco for 72 hours.

Good point, **** doctors. Boring-ass shitheads.

This is very true and my response to the doctor would be if I could refrain for 72 hours I wouldn't be using snus or a tobacco product and asking you now would I...

You should be ok with snus. The reason for the food ban is so they don't have anything... erm... blocking the view :^D So, unless you're in the habit of eating portions, you should be ok.

Thanks for the advice guys! I really am dreading Monday. Thank god they are putting me under sedation so I'll be asleep the whole time. The one plus is I'll hopefully get a good diagnosis.

What I'll probably do Sunday is just do one or two portions spaced out and use snuff all day.

Hope everything goes okay.

You'll be in my prayers.

[Premium Parrots]

didn't they give you a prescription laxative? If they did then get ready for a shit storm...........literally.

I mean it, get ready. You won't believe how powerfull that stuff is.

I refrained from using snus, it was easy. And I've had a couple of those procedures. Have a lot of fun with the nurses............they are going to see you at your worst. lol

C'mon Now - 4 out of 5 Doctors recommend Lucky Strike.... Sorry forgot what year it is...

You'll be fine, as I am sure you have heard, the worst part is the prep, not going to sugar coat it, it is awful. The colonoscopy itself is not bad at all, they sedate you and the next thing you know you are in a recovery room.
My results were fine, hope yours are as well!

[EricHill78]

Thanks for the words of encouragement guys. Yeah they gave me a damn bucket of laxative.. I gotta fill the damn thing and drink it all.. Kinda freaks me out.. I really dread tommorow drinking that crap.. My stomachs been messed up and the last thing I want to take is laxative.. Plus I'll be starving.. Chicken broth, non red jello?? Get outta here..

I can drink Gatorade which is alright. I'm just a big baby sometimes. Just want the next 48 hours to be done and over with.
