One coworker said he took a pill -- I will check out that option in 5 yrs. for my next colonoscopy.
Drank 1/2 GL of the pineapple flavored stuff at 5PM yesterday. Taste like salty watered down pineapple juice. Not too bad. Drank the other 1/2 GL at 4AM this morning. Checked in to the clinic at 0830, by 0915 was in the room getting hooked up and sedated. Don't remember anything until I awoke back in the recovery room at 1030. Out the door on the way home, wife driving, at 1100. No discomfort. A little groggy. Taking it easy the rest of the day. No polyps or lesions found upper or lower. Good to go.
