Hi there,

I have never had the procedures myself, but I worked in endoscopy as a nurse for years. I am presuming you mean you're having a endoscopy and colonscopy (apologies if I've got that wrong)

Many patients struggle with the klenprep but loads report if its chilled its a lot easier to take. Also some people mix it with cordial (keep it quite clear). 

Try your hardest to drink it all though as a clear bowel makes it so much easier for a thorough examination. 

The endoscopy usually takes 5-10 minutes and the colonscopy can take about 15-45 minutes - both can be a little longer if taking biopsies etc.

I know it must be scary not knowing what to expect, but please remember there will be a nurse sitting with you the whole way through you're procedures, they will explain everything to you, make sure you're comfortable and do their best to answer any questions you have 

Hope all goes well for you. 

Michelle.

Yeah definitely just make sure its still quite clear. Even make up the next klenprep and leave it in the fridge so its cool when you go to use it. 

Good luck & let me know how you get on xx

I definitely will thankyou so much xx
