At the time of this writing, it's "Colonoscopy Prep" day for me - although in an ugly development, it's now a two-day process featuring the regular explosive internal excavation this evening, then doing it all over again in the morning before going in for the procedure. Presumably so you won't care if you die on the table.

I had a sigmoidoscopy in May 2001. The prep is the same but you're awake for the procedure so you don't get to die unconscious on the table. And you can't change the channel on the TV.
"This too shall pass..."
The best part is the explosive flatulence in the recovery room after the procedure.
If you get an endoscopy at the same time, you can ask them to drive the Golden Spike at the duodenum. ;D
I got my Granddaughter with the old "pull my finger" trick inn recovery.
If your getting both, ask for the endo first.
I hear the only difference between the endo and the colonoscopy is the taste.
Don’t worry, soon you’ll be pooping out things you haven’t even eaten yet!
The neat part about a colonoscopy prep is the prescience side effect...you'll know what you're going to be eating three days later because it's going to come out today.
exact same thing at the exact same time...great minds DO think alike :)
So, beware the soft-serve chocolate cone with sprinkles?
After the two-stage prep, I got to the hospital and asked if they'd be using a lubricant, because my butt was so raw. Hilarity erupted. I believe they did use a lubricant, because I don't remember feeling so raw afterward.
