Oh no whophd - that was bad luck and definitely bad timing that they threw the rest out and you no longer have a full dose for the morning. I think you did the right thing in contacting the out of hours service and I hope they will ring you back soon with advice on what to do. I hope that you manage to get the full dose sorted on time as I can understand why you would not want to have your appointment cancelled or postponed because of this little blip. 

I am not sure myself whether the hospital would take you - it is best to follow exactly the instructions they have given you so as not to be disappointed but hopefully when the out of hours doctor rings you back, they will be able to help you get more Moviprep or tell you where to go. I am not sure at what time your colonoscopy is tomorrow but hopefully you can have it all sorted before.

Our nurses may not respond to you straight away but if you would like to speak to them first thing tomorrow morning, there is a free helpline you can ring on 0808 800 4040. It is open from 9am until 5pm Monday to Friday. 

Everything crossed you get hold of the Moviprep on time and that you get to have your colonoscopy tomorrow and it all goes well!

I found the full dose more than cleared me out! I hope what you have will be enough. My recent colonoscopy was a ct scan with an injection that makes you think you're peeing yourself! The scan showed cysts on my overies so the bowel being super clean wasn't a great problem. . If you have only had a quarter of today's dose the duty dr may suggest you have tomorrow's dose  tonight saving some for the morning. 
If you have a later appointment tomorrow perhaps you could get another dose from the pharmacy first thing. I hope it all turns out ok for you.  
take care

The ooh doctor couldn't help and I think by the time the chemists opens it will be to late.  I'm going to take what u have left and just go to the appointment.  Shifts point I'm only padding water anyway.  There's nothing else.  I'm so stressed I can't sleep

I have just returned from the procedure. I went ahead with it and they said my bowel prep was fantastic. Obviously I didn't say anything as the staff were lovely, and I don't recommend stinting on the prep but accidents happen and I was lucky. Or I ate the right food as well :D

THey took a couple of samples for biopsy but reassured me that they hadn't found anything to worry about. A possibility of microscopic colitis perhaps. We will see. I do feel somewhat bloated though. But glad to have endured that. I didn't have sedation, and to be honest it's pretty uncomfortable in places like very bad trapped wind. 

Much love and thanks to the team at the Hospital. Absolutely above and beyond IMO. Couldn't ask for better. Thanks for everyone here's support
