Colonoscopy Today

Full disclosure, now that it is done.

I been prepping for this procedure since Tuesday night, yesterday I started a drink called Trilyte. Lost quite a bit of weight.

Stopped eating Tuesday night and start with two tablespoons of Milk of Magnesia.

Started drinking the Trilyte yesterday evening. The drink was nasty but wasn’t as bad as others have told me. Just held my nose as I drank each glass. Half gallon yesterday night and half gallon today. About 8 glasses every 10 minutes. Takes a bit over an hour to get through it.

Evening was bad, but I certainly went a lot and it did clean me out.

During this morning I was used to it, and the second phase was OK, got the color I needed.

Wife and daughter assisted me at the hospital. My procedure was at 12:45PM and I was to arrive there at 11:45AM. It was actually a good time, because it was after lunch and I got started with no delay.

I was out of there by 2PM, it was actually quick, I went under and next thing I knew I was in the recovery room. I think I was in my personal vehicle by 2PM. I felt drunk.

I got home watch a few youtube videos. But was still sleepy, woke up at 6PM and had dinner.

Pretty interesting day. Marking it as a milestone because it was my first.

On a final note, there were a lot of Filipino nurses that new my family.

Tomorrow now 12k steps either.

Weight: 327.8
