Reply to "Flex sig prep"

I had my annual pouchoscopy last week. My surgeon doesn't instruct me to do any prep except to skip breakfast on the day of the scope. But still, two days before my appointment I'll eat light meals. Soups, tuna salad, egg salad. No leafy vegetables. No beets or raspberries -- produces red residue which can be alarming.

I always ask for sedation. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the procedure. I don't feel anything, and can watch the screen. The procedure takes an hour or so from sedation to waking up in recovery. Everyone is given cookies and juice to get moving.
