Had my 5 year colonoscopy this morning, so I did the clean out yesterday.
My doctor started me on new medication last November that made me very nauseous; he gave me a prescription for it. Worked like a charm. Once I got used to those new meds, the nausea went away, and I tucked the anti-nausea meds in my cabinet.
Well, before the clean out, I had the presence of mind to ask the doc if I could use those to fight the effects of that horrible gobbledy-gook you have to drink for the cleanse. He gave me the OK. Well, it worked like a charm! I got through the prep without any real stomach discomfort and no nausea to speak of!
So if you or a LO have a problem with that prep medication before your colonoscopy, it might be helpful to ask for a prescription anti-nausea medication to help fight the side effects. It really made a world of difference for me.
Easy peasy.
