What to Wear to Your Colonoscopy

When you lot striking l, you may be asked to join the  "Y'all Need a Colonoscopy Society."

It happens.

Everybody talks virtually the horrific "Prep" and nobody talks most the advisable attire for this Big Result. Here is everything yous need to know.

The All You Can Swallow Cafe

 Fact: The day earlier the Big Event all you lot tin 'swallow' – is clear liquids.

Hot mugs of Swanson's chicken broth with a squirt of fresh lemon juice is considered a great repast; several servings of Jell-O can be considered mini-meals (no crimson cherry flavour.) Pure water ice Popsicles are a bully little snack- (do not buy fruit filled popsicles.)

Drink: Lots of tea, lots of 7Up, ginger ale, and Gatorade. Hydrate yourself before, during and after the result. Accept another loving cup of tea…a tall warm drinking glass of 7Up. Mayhap another scoop of yummy Clot-O.

Afterward the 12 hours of "Prep" – Iii Tips:

HOT TIP: Every colonoscopy Prep should include the following: scented candles in your bath, butterscotch flavored lifesavers, and three comedies from the library, Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Prime – to keep you mildly entertained and totally distracted.

These three items are your "spoonful of carbohydrate" to brand the episode go away.

(All iii secrets too help make the so-chosen "yummy new flavor" of the Prep drink drug disappear)

• Suck on a few Lifesavers – the flavor of your choice – to cleanse your palate…a few times. The primal urge to fill your mouth with gustation-bud-deadening ice cubes is besides very effective.

• Candles add together ambiance and a much needed fragrance enhancements…for those multiple ensuing trips to the loo. Enough said.

• Lighthearted comedies help pass the fourth dimension and continue you lot distracted. (Do not even think nearly renting Melancholia, Memento, or Holy Motors.)

And, no, trying to read a book or even a  runaway bestseller is not a good idea on the eve of your Big Event. Trust me, for in one case the likes of Beak Murray, Adam Sandler, or Will Ferrell trump those glib essays by Goethe, Sartre and Camus.

Upon Arrival at Colonoscopy Central

(Hot Tip: Exist smart. Do non vesture a watch, earrings, necklaces or actress rings. The nurse will inquire you lot to ID all the extraneous jewelry y'all not supposed to vesture. Recollect you will exist asked to disrobe and don the infamous gown – Open-in-the-dorsum.)

Check into the forepart desk-bound: bring your ID and your insurance carte and reading spectacles, if necessary.

Have the affections who drove you lot (to and from) hold your pocketbook, wallet, dorsum pack…(really – all of which volition non demand- go out them at home)

• Yous will then be asked to complete most eight forms.
• Remember: you haven't eaten over thirty hours -you may exist a little featherbrained, weak, and flimsy.
• Complete the forms, retrieve your two ID cards (be certain to supply the telephone number of your driver.)
• Shortly thereafter, Nurse #1 will escort y'all to your room with drapes-as-walls. She volition ask you your date of birth, total name, and to recite the proper noun of the Dr. and the name of your upcoming process.

Since you're smart, y'all are wearing shoes that slip off (clogs, mules, loafers) and socks.

Vesture pants (sweats, yoga pants elastic band-annihilation) that sideslip off along with your sweater (good tip: article of clothing a T-shirt, girls: skip the bra)

Y'all will allowed to habiliment the T-shirt and socks.  All else is stored in a tiny locker (less is more.)

Do not wear tie up shoes, you'll see why later on.

Slip into the tiny bed. Nurse volition take your blood pressure. Attach an ET oxygen finger-"clip and insert hydration Iv.

The "Knock, knock – you're out!" sedative is later.

Nurse #2 will enter next and ask you your name, engagement of nascence, name of process, and the physician's name. Generally, they advise you, "The medico will be in shortly."

If you are smart and lucky – you are a patient of Dr. Jane  – easily downward: the smartest, nigh cordial, kind Dr. yous have ever met. She volition get in, meet you and assuage many fears. Now is the time to ask her any questions. The good Dr will speak you lot over again postal service-event.  (Note: you may be very groggy- ask all questions now)

Thereafter, you'll be wheeled into "the procedure room." You lot might exist nervously chatty or just looking at all those computers. Whew. Yous know you have a blood pressure cuff on, an ET oxygen clip, and then, voila: oxygen! And then the magic sedation …going, going, gone and you're nether.

You volition wake upward back in your "room" and asked which juice you'd adopt: cranberry or apple… The doctor will come in and report findings.

Finally, you'll go dressed and exist so happy to pull on underwear, some variation of pull-on pants, your top, skid your feet into shoes – no fuss, no muss, no zippers no buttons. Important: yous may be a little foggy brained  – you may be a little flimsy, whimsy, high.

At the appropriate time, a nurse will walk y'all out to your "driver" and you will have reports, papers and copies of documents in your hand.

You probably won't know that these things are in your hand-never mind. (No pocketbook, backpack, to worry most  – your driver has information technology)

Note: Yous are high. Not Aureate Gate Park 1977 high – but you are loftier. The sedation stays in your organisation for a bit of fourth dimension. Hours. Tread lightly.

Remember:  The day earlier all you lot could "consume" was – was a menu of clear liquids.

When you become abode – y'all may be ravenous or sleepy or both.

Be certain to drink a lot of water (48 oz.) during the 24-hour interval mail result.

Some of united states of america slither right into bed and sleep information technology off.

Others return abode famished. It'south a good thing to approach nutrient in a dull methodical way: avert spicy and hot…Recall: rice, oatmeal, yogurt, sorbet, things that are cool and calm to your stomach – a expert way to start your entry back into the world of food.

Sleep well.

There'due south a good chance you won't want to look at any course of Clot-O for some other five years.

Take the 24-hour interval off – follow all the directions from the Doctors office. Rest.

Look a follow up phone call to check on you lot…days subsequently. The office will postal service you a "bill of wellness."

Never e'er diameter anyone with the details regarding 'the Prep.' (That's similar talking almost your divorce – and no 1 wants to hear that story, either.) Promote watching comedies, lifesavers and scented candles – plus comfy pull-on clothes and sideslip on shoes.

Everyone should know what to wear to a colonoscopy.
